LOL

Here's my layout for this weeks challenge: The boys and I went to Gatlinburg, TN for our vacation this year. One of our favorite attractions was Ripley's Aquarium-worth the trip all by itself!  And since Scott is studying to be an underwater welder we just had to have a picture of him in Scuba gear!

And a closeup of the ocean scene:

It's hard to see in the picture but the mulberry "sand" is sprayed with adhesive and covered with Flower Soft Hint of Green Glitter.
