The new book at The Library is To The Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf.
To be honest, I haven't actually read this book - I just liked the cover- okay??!!
And I didn't really show much variation on the two cards I made - they've both got lighthouses on them - surprise! Actually, they both also used a mix of stamps from different sets, are both blue and yellow, and have almost no colouring-in!
For my first card I went one-layer and used two blue ink colours and a tiny touch of yellow.
I'd like to enter this card into:
Craft Rocket summer
My second card draws more from the cover , using silhouette stamps (again, from a mix of sets) over a stencilled background . (I used one stamp on both cards - did you spot it?)
I'd like to enter this card into:

I hope you'll visit The Library.
