Good Evening! If you're here by way of Brigita Skopas http://gitascreations.blogspot.com perfect. If not, click HERE to get you started at the beginning.
Welcome to the SNS blog hop of 2013. The Sparkle Team is so enthusiastic about our 2013 Blog Hops. Each hop will reveal a "theme" rather than just an "image category". This monthly blog hop challenge is At the Beach. So here is my rather large card which is 8" square card. I found this really neat product that looks and feels like sand. I then embodied the sea shells which some of them have Super Thick clear embossing powder on them as well.
I hope you enjoyed my large 8" square card and you can find the complete instructions here:http://sparklensprinkle.com/g/view_album.php?set_albumName=People
