I wanted to scrapbook a couple of pictures of our trip to the beach and Sketches Creatively Yours has a great sketch and DT inspiration, so I made up a layout...also, Lasting Memories has "mining silver" on their challenge this week, so I would like to put this layout into their challenge as well. :)  Here is my layout and SCY sketch....
