Birthday Card - Lighthouse on the Beach


If you are here for the FLAUNT IT FRIDAYS Hello Kitty Blog Hop just Scroll down a bit please!!!

I was so wanting a nautical themed cartridge with lighthouses and ships and things, and little did I know it all existed on the Life is a Beach Cartridge which I got from www.hallmarkscrapbook.com for only 19.99. It has so many cute cuts on it and it even has a light house!!! I have had several requests for lighthouses so I am very happy to have this. When I think of a lighthouse I pretty much think of a beach scene so that is what I did. I like to create scene cards anyway so this was fun. The sand paper was from Creative Memories from several years back. For my sea I just tore two different shades of blue and layered them like this, and then I created my sky from the sun and clouds from Create a Critter. I used a Scrappy Moms Sentiment on the one cloud to tie it all together. I like the lighthouse in the foreground popped up. Hope you enjoy. Look out for my other lighthouse card to post tomorrow night. Hope you enjoy!
