To the Beach!

Oh how I'd love to be on the beach right now! Especially after this unusually chilly summer weekend. At least crafting a summer project provides sort of a mental getaway, right? :)

I'm having such a good time guest designing for Heartstring Designs that not only do I have a project to share with you today, but I'll have another one tomorrow, too!

Today's project is a card featuring Peachy Keen Stamps and of course, items from the July Summer' Lovin kit!


Items from the kit include the light blue base paper, the anchor paper, and all the embellishments. The striped and patterned papers aren't from the kit, however they are from the same Fancy Pants line that is included by the kit, called Down by the Shore. Such a fun summer collection!


The octopus is just too excited to be headed to the beach! He's from Peachy Keen's June stamp set of the month, and I colored him with Copics Y11, Y13, Y17 and Y67. I'm also linking up this card to their photo inspiration challenge this week:




 Don't forget to check out the new Heartstring Designs Ning site, and stop back here tomorrow for another post using this month's fabulous kit!
