Just keep swimming...just keep swimming...

Hi friends and a very happy Monday to you!
I hope your weekend went well? I will show you tomorrow what I did on Sunday. ;)
So did you hear the buzz on the Farm? The Greeting Farm, that is! Marie is away at CHA so she came up with a wonderful babysitter for the Farm fans - free digis! You can read all the details HERE, this is the first of 5:



Meet Mer Ian! He's so cute, he looks like a baby to me. I made an easel card with some leftover shells that broke off one of my fave bracelets.
There are several layers to the easel:

 


 

Sentiment and fishy are from TGF's By The Pond set.
My challenges:
Pile it On: Warm Wishes
A Spoonful of Sugar: Lots of layers
Creative Card Crew: Punch It (sentiment and sun)
Flourishes Timeless Tuesday: Create a scene
Stampin' B's DT challenge: Create a nautical card
HFOS: Swirls swirls swirls
Thank you all for coming by! I hope your Monday is full of happy surprises, have a wonderful day. :D
*Love and Aloha*
