As a born and raised Calgarian, I live about as far away from an ocean as you can get so I cannot tell you how excited I was when Doodlebug introduced their new collection - Seaside Summer. While I may not be able to get off to the ocean easily, at least I can now enjoy all the fun aspects of being at the beach right here on my crafty kitchen table! It's like a vacation right here in my home! And I don't even need to worry about shark bites and jelly fish stings (Doodlebug characters would NEVER)!
If you have followed my projects here with Doodlebug at all, you will know that my heart lies with the stamps, so I had to feature the "Sea Life" set for this first round of projects. I love this set because you can use these stamps for just about any kind of card you can imagine!
And as always, Doodlebug has created coordinating dies to make stamping and cutting out as easy as it can get. There is even a bonus die cut shown above in the picture that you will not find in the stamps.
It's a perfect addition to your little scenes - adding a bit more texture and depth to your work.
For the bases of the cards, I decided to team up the Cards & Envelopes with the Labels & Tags for the background of these cards. Together you get easy shapes that coordinate perfectly and add interest and texture to the base of your cards.
So ocean or not, this collection will have you o-fish-ially crafting the summer days away (sorry - couldn't help myself)! I know I can't wait to get onto my next project! Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs,
Cards & Envelopes
