My dil, Ellen and dgs Bradley at Bethany Beach, Delaware last summer......a very special boy!!!!

I dry brushed the corrugated cardboard, the flourishes with acrylic paint.....then used Distress ink on it. The shells are actually from the beach....and the letters are Thickers. I used very old Daisy D background paper.....and My Minds Eye Dots pad for the circle.
