Seaside Spray

Another of the In Colors that is leaving us is Seaside Spray. This is a blue that has some gray in it so it can look drab but I think it is a beautiful blue. I wanted to share some cards that feature this lovely color. 

I am starting with a monochromatic card. I embossed a layer with Ornate Floral embossing folder. I die cut the frame with Ornate Layers and adhered it with dimensionals. I stamped a portion of Ornate Garden on Basic White and added it to the Ornate Layer. The Thank You comes from Ornate Thanks. Yes, this was all in a suite together and several items are on the retiring list. I added some rhinestones for bling to the flower centes.


Seaside Notions is also retiring. I love this seahorse. I colored him with Mango Medley blends and fussy cut him. The Seaside Spray frame was made by using two different sized Stitched Rectangle dies.


I paired Seaside Spray with Flirty Flamingo for this birdie card. I used blends to color the birds and ribbon. I also used my blending brush to add some Seaside Spray to the background of the birdies, it's hard to see in this picture.


While it is always sad to say good-bye to colors, that also means that new colors are coming. We have 5 new, beautiful colors coming your way so don't mourn these colors too long!

Happy Stampin'!

Seaside Notion Pages

The ocean beach is my happy place. I love to sit in the sun, watch my family play in the water or sand, read a book or just listen to the waves. The smell of the salt air and the warmth of the air relax me so greatly. The last two years we were able to take a vacation to Pawley's Island, SC and I loved every minute of it! With all the health concerns that 2020 brought, we did not get a vacation in this year and I am missing my salty air and sandy toes!

To help me cope, I created some scrapbook pages. Trying to sooth my soul.


The base for these pages is Crumb Cake. The blues are Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay.


Yes, I fussy cut all the shells, coral and seahorse for these pages. There is some Wink of Stella on these pages too but I know you can't see it. These are some sparkly pages!


I'm not sure when we will be able to travel to the beach again but I sure am hoping it will be soon! I love the soothing sounds that the ocean provides. Get out there, have fun, take pictures and record those memories on scrapbook pages!

Happy Stampin'!
