Here is my LATE card for the teapot party for Debby, Elizabeth's (I love rubber) sister who needs some happy mail to keep her smiling - some memories of her with her sister growing up looking for shells on their vacation - wished I could have found my tiny seashells to put on here, but they were no where to be found after DTGD week - see her story HERE
This card will also qualify for Tater's day at the beach challenge - if you would like to join us, please put TSC0809 in your keywords!!

I love that image and that beautiful gold background! It really takes us back to those wonderful days at the beach. I like how you cut it out and used the recycle card as a backdrop. Love your card!

Sue, this card and the whole idea, is Beautiful! I love the gilded frame, the girls hunting for the biggest and best seashell and the tropical ocean bg! After getting this card, Debby may just have to visit the coast and her sister!
What a beauty this is! Love the gold framing and the pretty little flowers. Then mixing a photo and stamping together gives a truly unique look. Very pretty and will be loved.

Ah! those golden summer memories of the lake. Growing up we had a lake cottage at Lake Winnipeg, Manitoba. This very large lake with flat sandy shores looks exactly like the backdrop you have here for the sweet little girls. I love the way you combined the stamped image with the background scene and the gold frame sets off the beautiful blue water. Thanks so much for making this beautiful card for my sister.
Cheers, Elizabeth
