Felicity Layout

Just thought I would post a layout I finished using the felicity paper and stamp. I used sandpaper for the "Beach" letters, although you may not see that detail from the picture. I also used colonial white edge anchors to secure the ribbon in between the 2 pics on the right. I can't wait to do more with this paper pack. Hopefully I will be able to play again soon.
You can win your own felicity paper pack by clicking on the National scrapbooking tag I have on the sidebar. Felicity is available till January 31st.
