This was a perfect time for me to do this project.  We just got back from vacation and went to the Newport Aquarium in Kentucky.  We are raising my 8 year old grandson so we took him and his friend.  They had a blast and believe it or not, choose the aquarium over an amusement park.  I just had to do a layout to remember the day.



 The cut files are from Treasure Box Designs.  While I use all AC cardstock for cardstock and the water paper is Recollections.  I created the title in SCAL 4 pro.

Here is some close ups.




Thank you for joining me on the hop and please leave a message. I love to read them!  I will answer any and all comments!  

Blessings,
