A few weeks ago I saw a wonderful card on my friend Emma's blog and I knew I had to have those papers lol...

They are by echo park....however you can buy them as digi's from here

So onto my card:

I have made the card for my nephew's 1st birthday in August.. It was just perfect as we take him swimming almost every month and we are taking the family to Great Yarmouth in September!!

The papers are basic grey and I have cut them with xcut border punch, I have then distressed it and touched the edges with stickles glitter to (hopefully) give the wave effect lol..
