I chose the sunset, because I have been wanting to make one: http://www.kevinandamanda.com/friday-fun-3/
I found a YouTube video by The Serene Stamper for a Sunset background with the lighthouse! It's a very good tutorial. It was a lot of masking and sponging, but my Misti was a lot of help. If your interested, watch her video. What I thought was a good idea she had was after you sponged the water, she took the wave stamp that comes with the set and used White craft ink to stamp over the blue water. Really made a difference. I wrote all of the steps down, I had to stop and start a few times! Need practice on my sponging. Easy tutorial to follow. TFL
