Hi! I hope you are having a good day. I want to show you a card I made with one of the new lighthouse stamps that will be available soon at Just For Fun Stamps. This one reminds me of the lighthouse at Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. We took a trip there last summer. In 1999 the lighthouse had to be moved to safer ground, 2,900 feet inland. The move was a success! Can you imagine having the job to move such a heavy and tall structure? ( 200 feet tall and 5,000 tons! )
I thought this would make a good male birthday card. I found a background in my stash where I had used the shaving cream technique.
I stamped the lighthouse directly on the background and colored with alcohol markers. I stamped the Tiny Flying Birds at the top. I used white embossing powder and glitter on the clouds.
I hope you will join in this month's "back to school" challenge. We would love to see what you make! You could also win a gift certificate to the store.
Have a wonderful day!
