Lighthouse at the Beach Shine Bright Card

Made this card using Close To My Heart CTMH Lighthouse at the Beach Hostess Rewards stamp that is available for ordering if you hold a party (can be online party and have $150 in sales). Please see below.

Paper pieced the ground piece. Added shimmer to the top of lighthouse as well as to each window.

Made this to remind me of a wonderful trip to TyBee Island, GA. The day we went to visist the lighthouse electricity/power was off at the lighthouse but that did not hamper us. We walked to the top of the lighthouse. We also went on a tour of beach resort homes on the island that also included a sack lunch.

cardstock/paper: white

SHORE do love you Lighthouse Card

Got out some of my wood rubber stamps that I had not ever stamped with. Now that I have the MISTI tool I prefer clear stamps or rubber cling stamps. With wood rubber I still use the MISTI since the rubber cushion piece gives a nice stamping surface and I use the stamp-a-ma-jig tool to line up on the paper and if necessary keep position in case I need to reink & stamp again.

Pleased with how this stamped when it can be not easy for me with large stamps to stamp properly even with the tools I use.
