Feelin' Beachy!

Good morning and welcome to my second day of beach filled creations! If you did not get to read yesterday's post {which you should because I have some real fun cards posted} I am sharing cards this week that I made using the exclusive Cape Cod set from Jenn Shurkus. The following is some important information about a fund raiser that Jenn is doing and I would like to share it with you:

Jenn Shurkus lives on Cape Cod and is raising money for the Cape Cod Resilience Fund. This fund will help small businesses on Cape Cod who are experiencing financial difficulties due to Covid-19. YOU can help by purchasing one of Jenn's exclusive Cape Cod stamp sets. For each set sold between June 15th- July 1st, $10 will be donated to the CCRF. Another way you can help? Share this with your creative friends and help spread the word! More details can be found on Jenn's site here: https://shurk.us/CCRF 




This first card is a slimline card that I used the umbrella from the Cape Cod set, and Trinity stamp's Scalloped card panels and banners die. I colored the Umbrellas with BG10 & 11, YG01 & 03, R20 & 22, and Y13 & 15. To finish it off, I added a couple of sentiments. 




My next card uses the lobsters from the Cape Cod set and is a simple "Love" card. I used pattern play by Ellen Hutson to add the "x" background over masked Lobsters. then removed the masks and colored the lobsters with R20, 22. I cut out that panel with pink fresh diagonal stitch rectangles. 



My last card uses the Adirondack chairs and umbrella from the Cape Cod set. I cut them all out and added them to a patch of "sand" that I stamped. Then I glued that to a watercolor panel that I had ink "smooshed" altenew Lake ink on.  I added that to a panel of lemon drop cardstock and blush cardstock then finished off with a piece of twine. I also used altenew ink and water brush to color in the umbrella with Cotton candy and Mango Smoothie. I used Lagoon for the Chairs. 



I hope I have inspired you to purchase the Cape Cod set. It really is so versatile and $10 for every set goes towards helping small businesses. So everyone wins with this purchase!
