So many fabulous details, Carol! This is a great gender-neutral card as well. Love it. Thank you for playing along with us at Double Trouble #117.

What a fun idea, although it must take a bit of organising.

I love your card, fabulous layout and great herring gulls - so majestic to look at here; who would believe what bullies they are, I once saw one snatch an ice cream off a little girl! Great backing paper and embellishments too.

You got a fab CAS card in return, a very smart and useful card.
