Love that it has the “stripes” for the lighthouse separate so you can choose your lighthouse colors!
And if the exclusive stamp sets are enough of an incentive, check out the amount of FREE product you can receive when you host a qualified gathering.

DTP Inking. Direct to Paper Inking for us that don’t do well with remembering what DTP means. This technique is something I use all the time. I mean it ALL THE TIME! It adds depth, it creates interest, it can soften a hard edge or help colors work together by creating a unified hue. Like I said, this is a technique I use all the time.
Now, dry embossing is something I use from time to time, and when I do, I love the results. You can do dry embossing with embossing folders, embedded embossing, or by hand writing words, outlining stamped images, or sanding over a hard object.
