This is that other thing I do -- go to the beach!!!! This card is for my dad for Father's Day. I used paper from a local craft store in beige, cream and white. I stamped the lighthouse scene (don't remember the stamp brand) and colored it with my water color pencils & crayons. The border around the sentiment and the starfish are from the spellbinders "nautical" collection. I used a beige color chalk to highlight the border around the sentiment. then I added red gingham and blue gingham ribbon for a little extra pop. The sentiment is from Stampin Up's "All Around Argyle" set. TFL

Great card! Your beach scene with the lighthouse (love those) looks so relaxing and I love the SB frame around the sentiment. That little sand castle is so cute. I also like the bright borders on this long card.
LOVE this! Makes me ready for the beach. Your image is beautiful and your coloring is terrific. the sand has a look like the ocean washed up and just washed back out again. Really lovin' the tag too! Great card!

Great card!
BTW, we may be crafty twins. I also made a Father's Day card with this challenge and your table and background look like you could be taking this picture at my house! That totally made me smile.
