Sunshine & Soft Seas

Welcome back, crafty friends! We’re headed to the ocean today as we explore the great outdoors this week. And we’re pairing up the Beautiful Bokeh paper with the new Rolling Waves bundle to create this card full of sunshine.

We get started with a neutral base of white cardstock, which provides a nice contrast to our soft, beachy color palette. A panel of Pool Party shimmer paper serves as our mat for the focal panel. We’re building our focal panel on Crymb Cake cardstock and we’ve stamped some larger sand piles with the Rolling Waves stamp set. To create the ocean, we’re using a sheet of the blue Beautiful Bokeh and a scrap of white paper and the Rolling Waves waters edge dies to create the foaming effect in the foreground. I’ve cut a palm frond from Soft Sea Foam and sea shells from Flirty Flamingo and layered them up front. The sentiment is stamped ina combination of Flirty Flamingo and Daffodil Delight to create a sunset effect. We finish things off with a combination of opal rounds — a few to create pebbles and a few to create bubbles in the water.

I hope you’ll drop by tomorrow to see where our next adventure takes us!
