Retired BNF Friday #19

The first full work-week of 2013 was very busy, but nice. I had to constantly remind myself each time I sign something of the new year. Yet, I know I will be writing down 2012 for quite some time, then I will get the hang of it. And by that time, it will be 2014. Such is life.

As I was going through my stash of greeting cards, I noticed that I don't have very many Masculine cards in my reserve. I decided to put together one from one of my favorite stamp sets called Coast to Coast. I have always loved light houses and it is my dream to one day visit one.

I embossed the image using a heat tool, black craft ink and embossing powder
