Love this set and my hubby got it for me for Christmas. Stamped the image and colored it with twinkling H2o's, distressed and inked the edges. Layered the sentiment from Punches Three (which he also got me for Christmas!) with more scallop punches. Added the ribbon and slide and layered it all on a piece embossed with Swiss Dots.
And I even know who I'm going to send it to! Some dear SCS friends really liked this so I made a couple more to send to them. Carol was the original recipient and the one I had in mind when I designed the card. She loves lighthouses!

Oh Michelle!! Once again I'm in awe of your talent. This is beautiful, and I love the use of the sparkles. You always seem to know just what to do for that final touch.
You still have my address, right??

Stunning card Michelle....especially in real life!!! I'm sure proud to say that this arrived at my house when I was having foot surgery. Thanks Michelle for caring.
