1. I didn't see any black and white polka dotted teapot calendars with Rocky, bunny butts and the Wild Wild West cowboy on it so I went to Plan B.
2. I got pretty excited when I saw this Lighthouse Calendar though because I got a new Lighthouse set from Our Daily Bread Designs. Its being released February 1st. So, this ended up being a sneak peak!
3. I really changed the look of this stamp set simply because I was imitating the look of the calendar but I guess if you think about it, it shows the set can be versatile. Is that how you spell versatile?
4. Okay, I went a little crazy on the seaguls but you know how they are, always hanging in large groups! Besides after cutting out these dinky little birdies if you think I wasn't gonna put on my card, you're crazy!
5. I am posting a picture of the stamp set on my glob if you want to see what it really looks like. I just took elements of it for my card!

What a wonderful scene you created, Cindy. I always love your skies. I love lighthouses and I need to acquire more lighthouse stamps. I'll be on the lookout for this one. Great job, as always. tfs

Hi Cindy! Girl, IMHO, this is the BEST inspiration card today! I love it! It reminds me of our favorite vacation spot in Outer Banks, NC -- Ocracoke Island.
