Summer lighthouse

My hubby always complains about how many girly cards I made so I made up a bunch of masculine cards recently, and this one here is my favorite.  It features a beautiful image from Heartfelt Creations.


Products used:
Lighthouse Shore Product ID: 542G

Instructions:
Card is standard 4 1/4 by 5 1/2.  All colouring is done with Copics.
Stamp image on white card stock using black ink.  Colour image and add ink to edges for depth.  Cut blue background card stock, emboss and sand.  Layer using other card stock as shown in photo, adding ribbon beneath main image.

    This totally ROCKS, Christina! You should do more guy-cards! Great coloring and layout and I love the darker blue parts of the sky that just hint at clouds!
