Our challenge #1 is to be inspired by this. I think the above does this adequately though it has been many years since I built a sandcastle!Here I am at 16 months old on the beach.
That is me on the right.

                                         *************************************

I started by using white cardstock and misting with turquoise.(medium teal)
Next I've found textured pale grey handmade paper plus some card I cut from a tissue box featuring a wave pattern.
I've also put in my kit a mushroom brown 8x8 paper.The greyish blue will come later.

I'm using twine, wooden letters as part of my title,a framed blackboard plus a library pocket (envelope) and a small chevron paper bag,

I'm journaling about time spent at the beach so that completes the testimony.

 

And two close ups.
