CC279 Lighthouse Scene

Photo Details

Poster: hobbydujour

Betty gave us these colors for today's challenge: Wild Wasabi, Cherry Cobbler, Marina Mist with neutrals of choice. The dessert was to make a boy/man themed card for a special person.

The "Marina Mist" name gave me the idea of a nautical/shore card. I had just won this stamp on EBay and decided it would be a good one for today's challenge. There is a little "green", but you really have to look for it...in the grasses. ; )

This is a gorgeous combination of elements. Love the cloudy blue sky behind the "out-of-the-box" lighthouse. Love the "framing" with red and white stripes. Love the charm. It's fantastic!
