I hadn't yet had a chance to honor our Featured Stamper Linda aka Holstein and I also had an idea still in mind from the inspiration challenge. I chose to CASE this awesome card of Linda's TLC359 Favorite by Holstein at Splitcoaststampers and used the lighthouse image with b/w and touches of sepia as I'd seen in my inspiration piece which I copied onto my computer, but CANNOT find again on the site to link.
I used a lighthouse image in place of the horse, but used the pencil technique and added a bit of sepia on the sand which doesn't really show up in the picture. Instead of the newsprint bg I used sheet music of a hymn. Because there ended up being a sort of blank spot in the corner, I added a shell image that I also stamped in the light grey then used pencil over. I added the script prayer, used a piece of tan burlap and added the three antique brads. I didn't have the die to cut for the image so I used my ticket corner punch to add interest there. I ended up punching the corners on my panel and popping it over a black card base.
