Hi Everyone and welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle At The Beach Blog Hop! The rain seems to be leaving us after several days of a deluge and the temps are warming up too! Now I am ready to hit the beach! If you have come by way of the creative Anne's blog then you are at the right place.

I used a neat technique for the background of my card that I will be showing soon on the Sparkle N Sprinkle Technique Tuesday involving tissue paper, glue and stains. So stay tuned!
The girl is from the Whimsical stamp set. I used Ice Sea Glass and Mini Shell Mudd Puddles at the bottom of my card. I added Champagne glitter to the Mudd Puddles and shells to give sparkle!
