A few years ago my family went on a vacation up the Oregon coast and visited several of the lighthouses. It was one of the best vacation we have ever had. If you ever get a chance to tour inside a lighthouse, do it. We even we able to go up to the very top of one of them and look out over the ocean, so cool. Someday I hope to check some of the ones on the east coast. So when I first saw this set it brought back memories of that vacation, now I need to get out the photos from that trip and scrap them.Okay enough of my reminiscing and on to the card. I made for my husband with that trip in mind. The stamp is from Rupa Shevde's set Guiding Light from Gina K Designs. I colored it with copics and embossed with labels one nestabilities. Gina's technique challenge this week was to use your nestabilities to emboss a frame. The patterned paper is from Basic Greys Lime Rickey collection. The card is five inch square with a base of tempting turquoise.
Challenges:
StampTV: Embossing only with nestabilities
2Redbananas: An inspiration challenge. How does summer inspire you? What do you see when you think of summer?
The Cuttlebug Spot: Celebrate Summer
