I love lighthouses!!! This is a brand spankin new stamp from Stampendous I bought last week. Love that new rubbah! Lighthouse is watercolored using watercolor pencils and a blender pen. After punching it out with my giga scallop, I sponged bordering blue around the scallop edges. Then cut another oval layer with my colluzle and sponged choc chip over that to "distress" it a bit. Finally used that distresser thingy from the new cutter kit (why did I wait so long to buy it) to finish the distressing. Adhered a scrap snip of choc chip grossgrain ribbon to the back of it. Stamped wish on bordering blue cardstock and sponged choc chip over it again to distress, then added the charm. Background paper is basic grey.

This is gorgeous! I love all the distressing. The lighthouse looks great on the scalloped oval matted on plain oval. Cute addition of the starfish charm. Your coloring is beautiful.
