Cut card stock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Delightful Dijon Card Stock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Island Indigo Card Stock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" pf white words on Delightful Dijon background from 2015-2017 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack, cut to make sure the words are running horizontally
- 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" from Island Indigo Card Stock
- 2-3/8" x 3-3/8" from Whisper White Card Stock
- 1" x 3-1/2" from Whisper White Card Stock
Adhere the designer paper to the large Island Indigo rectangle and then to the front of the Delightful Dijon card.
Place a piece of scratch paper on top of the Stampin' Pierce Mat and then place the large white rectangle on top. Stamping on the pierce mat will help you get a better image with the photopolymer stamps and the scratch paper will protect the mat from ink when you stamp off the edges of the card stock.
Mount the horizontally striped lighthouse image from the High Tide Photopolymer Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Crumb Cake Ink Pad. Stamp it on the left side of the white rectangle so it is centered up and down.
Mount the vertically striped lighthouse image on Block H. Ink it up with the Delightful Dijon Ink Pad. Stamp it over the previously stamped lighthouse image.
Mount the sand image on Block H. Ink it up with the Crumb Cake Ink Pad. Stamp it along the bottom of the white rectangle making sure that the square opening fits around the base of the lighthouse image.
Mount the ray of light image on Block H. Ink it up with the Delightful Dijon Ink Pad. Stamp it onto the white rectangle so the skinny end is in the center of the top of the lighthouse and the ray is going off the right side of the rectangle.
Mount the "There's Nothing Little About The Light You Shine" sentiment on Block B. Ink it up with the Island Indigo Ink Pad. Stamp it to the right of the lighthouse so it is centered between the ray of light and the sand. Clean the stamp with the Stampin' Mist and Stampin' Scrub, but do not remove it from the block.
Ink up the sentiment again using the Delightful Dijon Ink Pad. Stamp it onto the skinny strip of white paper so you get the word "light" centered on the strip.
Pick out the long, single, open banner framelit from the Bunch of Banners Framelits. Place the stamped sentiment on a Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on your Big Shot. Place the banner framelit on top so the sentiment is centered. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Poke out the banner with the sentiment and keep it. Also use the Paper-Piercing Tool to poke out the outline banner that is probably stuck inside the framelit, remove it, and throw it away. If you don't remove it, then you will have trouble cutting with this framelit the next time you use it.
Without adhering, lay the sentiment banner over the word "light" stamped beside the lighthouse so that the right edge of the banner sticks out over the right edge a bit. Use Paper Snips to cut the left edge of the banner off at an angle that matches the angle of the lighthouse.
Adhere the "light" banner over the word light on the lighthouse and sentiment image using edge pieces cut from Stampin' Dimensionals.
Adhere the stamped lighthouse and sentiment image to the small Island Indigo rectangle.
Adhere the matted lighthouse and sentiment rectangle to the left side of the card front so it is centered top to bottom and about 1/2" in from the left side of the designer paper.
Add a large gold circle from the Metallic Enamel Shapes to the center of the top of the lighthouse.
Cut a 4" piece of 5/8" Burlap Ribbon. Tie a half-knot in the center. Trim the ends. Adhere to the bottom left side of the lighthouse where the sand meets the white using a Mini Glue Dot.
