The Ways To Use It challenge today is to make a card using your favorite stamp. This was a hard one. Hmmm, do I use my old favorite stamp or my new favorite stamp? I just received this Blue Knight stamp and it is my new favorite. I think this porch could be my new favorite place to be, as well.
I will try to keep up with commenting on everyone's cards. My internet really sucks, just when I think it can't get much worse, it does. I keep losing connection and a technician will not be out until March 1st. They say I am in a high demand area and there never seems to be a fix. Grrrrrr.

Yes new stamps are always favorites I love the rich colors on this and I want to be in that scene right now (we're expecting 6-12" of snow after a Feb thaw..)!

Your scene reminds me of a scene on one of my favorite PBS shows, "Death in Paradise".....one character has a small house on the beach of a Caribbean island that has a porch and view just like yours(minus the children's toys).

If you can find another chair, I would be there on the porch with you in a heartbeat!! What a delightful, bright, and beautiful card to wish someone well!! Love the sunset/sunrise sky and the popped up kite for a bit of light-hearted fun - my Dad used to love to fly kites at the beach. This will really bring some cheer to the recipient! HUGS!

Ah, sorry about your internet - that is the pits, isn't it : (
I love, love, love the beach and thus beach-themed stamps, so your vibrant card jumped right off the screen for me - beautiful coloring and a wonderful card for someone who needs a pick-up!
