And here's what I came up with...
I started by taping off all my edges to leave a nice white border around my card and then water colored using Antique Linen, Tumbled Glass, & Salty Ocean Distress Inks. Once dry I stamped my lighthouse and birds using Gina K's By The Sea 1 stamp set.
I finished by adding my sentiment which is a die cut and stamping using PTI's Inspired: Hope. Quick and easy and will be a perfect encouragement card!
This challenge is open till the 24th and you can check out all the fabulous inspiration from the DT and play along right HERE.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

This is so peaceful and beautiful Marcia! Your water colored background is just perfect.
A beautifully serene card Marcia. x
so serene, love the layering of the beach colours :)
Just love your outline lighthouse with the shaded background, Marcia - gorgeous!!
Love this awesome sentiment with the peaceful coastal scene, Marcia! This is frame worthy, my friend!
I like the soft wash of colors in the background Marcia, this is so pretty! Lighthouses are a favorite of ours to visit and for my hubby to photograph!
Beautiful soft color strokes so beachy feeling. Well done.
I love it, Marcia … just when I thought Hope had washed out to sea, here it is! Thanks, my friend - our chat really gave me cheer, too!

Beautiful design Marcia! Love the masked "frame" to create your one layer card. Gorgeous, soft watercolours for your sand, sea, and sky. xx
Light, airy, dreamy ... this is so serene and calm, Marcia ... the sentiment's wonderful! Hugs, Anita :)
Refreshing. Love the subtle pastel colours to complete this beautiful stamp, along with the masked white border frame. Great design and concept.
