Love Letters in the Sand

I've had some fun with this image by Sandra Caldwell named Love Letters in the Sand. 
I decided to make my own background stamping with Versa Mark and embossing with clear powder then sponging with Distress Inks, something I haven't done in a long time.  I forgot how messy this is but it was fun.
