on su white card base stamped seashells around whole edge, distressed edges. On a white base took a folded paper towel and layed down 3 distress ink colors, getting it wet then lay down my card base and brayered it til had the coloring I wanted. Then put in eb folder, distress edges. Found my image on color pages, shrunk, printed it out, colored with colored pencils, then cut it out with nestie and then cut out the yellow layer and orange layer with nestie. Printed the verse and punched with su punch and punched a orange layer too. Popped both up with pop dots, adding 2 ribbons on base first.

Gosh - it's hard to believe that there's no DP in this and that you created those layers from scratch. I love the brayered layer. You're a girl after my own heart, there!! And your image is just SO cute, with that little girl rescuing her ball from the seal - who I'm sure only wants to play.
