Lighthouse Series

I need some guy cards and I never seem to have any so I pulled out my lighthouse stamp set. I used Kraft card stock, colored with prisma colored pencils and polka dot dp on all three cards.
The red and yellow "arrows" are done with washi tape. The baker's twine was from Target's one spot section.
I'm entering this one in Sketch Saturday blog http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com/ using their sketch.
And Red Rubber Designs to use polka dots http://blog.red-rubber-designs.com/
 
Next up:
 The blue on this was done with DCWV card stock and embossed with a Tim Holtz embossing folder and then sanded to let some of the white core show through. The flags are done with washi tape.

And lastly:
The red dots are nailhead stickers. I have always loved the swirly clips but it has been a long time since I used them.

All these stamps are available at http://www.red-rubber-designs.com/
All the lights are done with stickles.
I even used lots of scraps to make these cards - of course I still have way more scraps left than I used. lol

Hope you have enjoyed this series.

Loved all three of the lighthouse cards - they make such nice guy cards. I think my fav is the first one with the bakers twine.

Hey Peggy! You have made three delightful lighthouse cards. I have been with my grand children a lot this summer and have not made anything. Might start back in September.
