Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is a sunset lighthouse picture!

SUNSET COAST
Of course, it was pretty obvious what stamp bundle I would use, but I wanted to do a little different look with it. I think it worked!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Crumb Cake cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic Beige cardstock was embossed with the So Swirly Embossing Folder (last chance).
- A 1-1/2 x 5-1/4 strip of Azure Afternoon was added across the center.
- A 3 x 4-1/4 piece of Blueberry Bushel cardstock was added to the front slightly towards the left edge with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A 2-3/4 x 4 piece of Scenic Coast DSP was added to the Blueberry Bushel cardstock making sure to get a portion of the “sunset”.
- The lighthouse image was cut with the die from Basic White cardstock and then colored with Crumb Cake and Real Red Stampin’ Blends.
- Another portion of the lighthouse rocky ledge was cut with the die from Crumb Cake cardstock and the pieces fit into the colored Basic White layer for a two-tone rock look. It was added to the bottom of the DSP layer.
- Happy Anniversary greeting was stamped with Blueberry Bushel Ink on 1/2 x 2-3/4 strip of Crumb Cake cardstock and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of red Sunset Sparkle Sequins were added to the background.

I really had fun coming up with this card! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!

I love this card so much because it shows that you can use the lighthouse die (and the sailboat die for that matter) outside of the circle it is in! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Lisa! Yes, I wanted a different look using those fun dies!
Wow!!
