I have a friend from church who collects lighthouses. So I'm going to make her some cards using the Coast to Coast set. Well .... since she collects them, I want to make sure I have them colored right! So I looked them up on the internet, using the list that Stampin' Up! provided:
Check out the Monterey Bay lighthouses!! There is one in Monterey(Pacific Grove) and one by Big Sur, this one has a website, though I don't know it. My DH found it once. The farthes lighthouse on the westcoast, Blanco in Oregon, used to have a website, but it has been awhile since I've checked.
I had some friends whose last name was Light. Their answering machine said, "Hi, this is the Light House." LOL
Thanks for posting this, those pictures are amazing. There's a lighthouse on the stretch of beach between San Francisco and Santa Cruz, too, at Pigeon Point.

Thanks for the information. I gave someone a card using this set once. She looked at it, then said, "Those aren't the right colors." Not that she will get another one :oops: but the next person will get the right colors.
Thanks for the information. I used this set at a Stamp A Stack the other week and my ladies from Michigan were up in arms, because there wasn't one from Michigan - I thought they were going to get really, really mad............
Thanks! I gave this set to a friend of mine on her birthday because she loves lighthouses. I'm going to send this list to her so she can see the originals!
NC has a ton too and you have to figure out which is which by the swirls or non-swirls or....too many factors. Thanks for posting this. Much more leg work and info than SU! Love it!!
My BIL got married in Maine last summer, and while there, I visited the Portland Headlight. I knew I was going to get Coast to Coast to scrapbook the pictures, but when I looked at the catalog and realized that there was a stamp of that EXACT lighthouse, I was elated. Here are the results.
Thank you so much - I'm a lighthouse nut too (still don't have this set, but it's on my list!)
I just finally got them, after staring at it in the catalog for about a year and a half! Now I take it out of the box and tell it goodnight everynight before I go to bed! Just Kidding!!!!!
Thanks for the info --- I'm just going to order them now after looking at them in the catalog for so long and saying I'm gonna get that set. Thanks again.

Sometime I should load my scrapbook pages into the gallery when we went to the Yaquina Head lighthouse in Oregon. If you can get to the Oregon Coast on a perfectly clear, sunny day (believe me that's not easy!) the ocean will look turquoise on pictures. I have amazing photos of this lighthouse. I love lighthouses and I really think I should get this set someday. How long has SU sold it? (I'm fairly new to SU, only been a customer for 2 years) They would make good masculine cards.
Coast to Coast info - if you're silly, like me!
