Welcome to day 2 of the hop!  Today's featured set is "Shello"  I am not sure what the occasion will be but this one is going to my sis.  Over the years, Mischale, spelled incorrectly on birth certificate, (pronounced Michelle) has become our beloved, Shell and sometimes Shello, so when I saw the sentiments on this set, I was tickled! 

I created the BG by folding and sponging and then ironing the paper flat when I was completely done.

I glued down the lower portion of the seaweed but popped up wavy tendrils for a little dimension.


A little seashell tag with my Sis's  nickname!

Don't forget to leave a comment on this blog for a chance to win today's feature and I hope you will hop along to see the beautiful projects created by the rest of my talented teammates!
Thanks for looking!
