For last Tuesday's Teapotter Tickle challenge, Sabrina asked the Teapotters to make cards w/lighthouses. (The last wk of most months the Teapotters exchange cards with each other and it is called the Tickle.) I didn't have a lighthouse stamp so I Googled "free lighthouse coloring pages" (I'd seen other SC gals note in their descriptions that their image was a coloring page so I tried it.) I liked this image and chose to use it. I didn't have the exact SU colors for last Tuesday's CC so I subbed yellow, blue and tangerine watercolor pencils to add color to the image. I did use a SU blue-tone ink across the bottom (stamped it off once to get a lighter bkgrd for my sentiment.) I did have SU tangerine and a SU green/blue color carstock, which I used. I am also submitting my card for Wednesday's SC and to the SOS136 challenge for an "outdoorsy" card.
Thank you for looking!

WOW, WOW, WOW. Gabby this is so life like. Your card feels so powerful with your clever colouring and shading. You have captured the true spirit of a lighthouse and the sea surrounding it. Straight into My favs.
