Beach Time

Another photo from our week away in Gt. Yarmouth in July.

 

The Scrap and Play challenge #14 is to lift a layout from the DT.  I chose Lisa Moen.....

 

I was inspired by all the different papers and bits poking out....if you know what I mean!!!  Also meant that I got to use lots of my 6x6 papers that I don't use much!!

The challenge closes on the 29th...so a little time to get scrapping!!
