Thinking of you

This is for this weeks Color Throwdown challenge.
Stamp sets used are :
Down by the seaside, Coastal, and All Year Greetings.
Versa magic chalk inks used are :
Spring Pansy, Sea Breeze, Mango, and Thatched Straw.
Other supplies used are :
Red watercolor marker and a paper piercing tool.

 For the background, I sponged spring pansy on first, then I sponged on thatched straw with just a hint of sea breeze. I used mango on the sun.

I used a red watercolor marker to color in the lighthouse.

My main goal was to make it look like there was a sunset behind my lighthouse, which is from the Down by the seaside clear stamp set. The bigger birds above the lighthouse are from the Coastal clear stamp set. The sentiment is from All Year Greetings clear stamp set. I used a paper piercing tool on the red border.

I had fun making this card for this weeks challenge.

This makes the 509th card I have made since 2011. This card is also posted in this weeks Freshly Made Sketches challenge at http://www.freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com. 

For this weeks challenge, I chose to use my new stamp set...Down by the Seaside clear stamp set. 

I used a white blank card with metallic blue and then another white, which is embossed with my dots embossing folder. For my seaside theme, I stamped it onto my card using black ink. Then I used Q-tips and chalk to color my picture.
