My card for this week's challenge is a re-creation of the original card. I left a really fun beach scene on my desk and dh thought it would be perfect to give me as my birthday card! This is close to the original with an alternative sentiment. I also added some glossy accents to the sailboat that weren't on the original.

Beautiful! I can almost smell the salty sea air with this wonderful ocean scene!! I'm really dating myself, but I think of the Pablo Cruise song, "Ocean Breeze" with this card!!

That ultra-fine Flower Soft certainly makes great sand - I'd seen somebody mention it in a thread where someone was asking about sand. A great seaside scene - the Glossy Accents look great, but I'm sure the original looked pretty good too.
