For the Inspiration Challenge this week about where you are from. I just got back in last night from visiting my family at the Jersey Shore. We visited the Boardwalks in Atlantic City and Ocean City. I didn't realize how homesick I really was until I saw and smelled the ocean. This image reminds me of my son when he was little and how he used to love playing on the beach and chasing the seagulls.
Combined with Sketch Challenge 275.
Stamps: SU Summer By The Sea and Stipple Shells.

I love your card!! I like how you kept the other panels simple so as not to take away from the main image. I'm glad you got the chance to go home for a visit.

Fabulous, Joanne! Love the colors and images and your story to go with it. NJ, really? When DH was in the army we were at Ft Monmouth for awhile. We lived in Long Branch, a block off the boardwalk. But it was fall/winter and everything was shut down.
