A year ago I was in California for my niece's wedding. My silly sister took this picture of me (without permission!!) at the ocean with my one piece swimsuit which is the only reason I am posting this. Cindy said someone should bring a one piece swimsuit so I am following orders. Sis seems to have zoomed in on me for full view of my hour glass figure. I think I am the only one in the entire world that cannot wear a baseball cap but I certainly do make a straw hat look good. lol!! I also used a embossing folder that is a clam....just for Cindy!!
Just so you are not all gasping....I will not be sending this card to Anthony. I do not want a huge set back in his recovery. The next card I post after I start dinner will be my destination card.
Had lots of fun this week, Cindy. Great story.
hugs to all of my sisters.

So cute! I love that crazy stamp. I cannot wear a baseball hat either.. My head's too small! I look terrible.. Love the texture in your card.. It actually made me feel warm!

LOL that you're not sending this to Anthony. You sure look good, CJ, and give me a straw hat over a baseball cap any day - it's got to win for sheer style.
When we were in Greece late last summer, all the locals used to come down and sort of float in the water chatting, all with their hats on. Not straw, mind you, but more floppy cloth hats than baseball caps. It was so funny to see.
Hugs to you.

Remember, hide your sister's camera! I love this cute image and the great beach scene you have made!! The clam shell embossing and your faux sand are perfect for this gal!! And here I thought I was the one that got caught by the camera! Only far far away, where no one knows me...

Okay, I am back! Snort! I am loving your nice trim and very thin little legs.......you wearing a swimsuit or are your riding a chicken? Snort! What a ham, you're covering up the clam! I shoulda known you would have a surfboard with you, since its sorta hard to snowboard in the surf and sand! Speaking of sand, that sand you did is awesome! And that palm tree! Oooh, I am loving it! This is a great card!
I am so happy THAT SOMEONE listened to me and brought a one piece! It is so nice to see you in the gallery Con Air! I dare ya to ride that 42,000 ft. high wave!

Cute, cute card!! Are you sure it wasn't Curt sneaking around with his camera taking this candid photo. He's good at that. You aren't the only one who can't wear a baseball cap. At my age, I just worry about keeping the sun off my thinning head of hair. Sure am glad you didn't wear a bikini for this shot though!! Love your sense of humor.

Did you know she sent me a copy? I almost used it until I realized Anthony might not appreciate getting a card with a photo of a ???something mature woman!
BTW, the sand is great, and I like the way the scene continues from the edge of the image panel (sorry, I know what I mean but can't figure out how to say it LOL!_
