This set is so much fun as every element is a stamp from the water to the sand, all the birds and lighthouse. I wasn't quite sure how to use it, so I did look on pinterest for some ideas. After doing this 6 times to get it right, I was just whipping that stuff out on auto pilot.
I sponged the sky, used the "water" stamp around the sand and images, popped up the lighthouse on dimensionals, added some shine to the birds and lighthouse with crystal effects and added a little greenery. It took some work to get it right, but now that I know how to use all the pieces, it will make it much easier to use.
TFL!

Fantastic card! So many neat details.... I'm thinking this shows "high tide" since the birds would have to cross the water to get to the lighthouse. And the shine on the lighthouse and birds really adds to the look of sunshine's effect. Love this! tfs

Sis, so glad to see you in the gallery! What a beaut! I still haven't figured this set out, but I love it - especially the birds. You did a fabulous job and I may have to dig the whole set out and play with it all after seeing this. So glad you are here - I have missed you. I will buy extra candy corn if you will come visit! Hugz

Wonderful scene. You did get it right. This is terrific. The sentiment ties-in so nicely. The red looks great with the blues & greens. Well balanced. Great job!! TFS

Wow Pam, this is awesome! I love how you fit this wonderful scene together so beautifully. Your water and sky come together perfectly - and I love the pops of red to coordinate with the lighthouse. Congrats on being one of the fav's this week too! Hugs!

Pamzi, my friend, you have made such a striking card. Wow! I really love this scene...every inch of it. I can see why it has been fav'd so many times and here goes another one. Hugs and have a great week. I would have listed it in my faves this week but didn't know it was there. I have been a bit out of sorts on here for a while.
