I had so much fun creating with @stampinupofficial

I had so much fun creating with @stampinupofficial ‘s Beach Boardwalk Suite Collection for our monthly group hop. I ended up making three unique cards!

☀️ First, I designed a slimline card featuring the beautiful two-toned cardstock which adds such a soft, blended look. I challenged myself to use every single color from the designer series paper, and I love how vibrant yet cohesive it turned out! I die-cut some palm trees and tickets to really bring those boardwalk vibes to life.

📸 Next, I created a Polaroid-style card where I really wanted to highlight those adorable puffy stickers and the designer series paper. They both add the perfect dimension and make it feel like a fun, captured beach memory!

🌴 For my final card, I made a Polaroid shaker card and added some watercolored palm trees for extra softness and detail. The movement inside gives it such a fun finishing touch!

✨ Hop along with us to see all of the beautiful creations from the group and get inspired!

🌊✨ A sneak peek of a fun beach-inspired project with @stampinupofficial ‘s Beach Time Scrapbooking Kit as well as the Beach Boardwalk Puffy Stickers and Boardwalk Fun Dies!

In French, the suite is called Promenade Littorale. I designed a seaside-inspired project using this beautiful collection as part of an exclusive video tutorial for L’Accent Créatif. Don’t worry if you don’t speak French — you can watch it with English subtitles on YouTube.

Good news: the tutorial is FREE with any purchase of $60 or more during the month of April!

Soft textures, calming colors, and all the summer vibes… this project is the perfect creative escape ✂️☀️

Head over to @stampinupofficial’s page where I’m sharing how to “stretch” your dies by dry embossing with them using a Silicone Craft Sheet, it’s such a cool way to get more from your supplies!

Here’s one of the cards I created featuring the beautiful Forever Floral Bundle
