These adorable Summer Friends encourage the recipient to “relax & refresh” on Yainea’s charming card! She cleverly used Platform Pop-Up Palm Tree Inserts and Wave Wrap Around to create a tropical island in the circle window! Then she stamped the fun sentiment on a banner from Bannertastic!
Tammy‘s Mermaid for You design is so very “spe-shell”! She combined Platform Pop-Up Wave Wrap Around with Platform Pop-Up Palm Tree Inserts to create a tropical beach. In addition to the mermaid, she added sweet details with Shello Friend and On the Beach.
Latisha‘s beautiful card is so perfect to send a happy greeting this summer! All the colorful Stitched Seashells are a perfect place for the Shello Friend critters to hang out!
Marine filled her Platform Pop-Up with so many fun tropical island images! She added extra trees and coconuts from Hammock and Trees. Then she added the glasses, citrus slices and umbrellas from Woodland Critter Huggers Summer Add-On. There’s a cute crab from Palm Trees and lots of cute fish from Build-An-Aquarium!
The cute mermaids of Mermaid for You are having fun frolicking in the waves on Elise‘s charming card. There are so many ocean-themed sets that will be perfect for combining with the new Platform Pop-Up sets!
I love how Megan used Foursquare Backdrop: Portrait to create four adorable little scenes with Summer Friends! And the pretty Rainbow Ever After paper is so perfect for this summery card!
Oh, my goodness, Grace‘s Platform Pop-Up is so clever! She inked Platform Pop-Up Palm Tree Inserts, Platform Pop-Up Wave Wrap Around and the beautiful Stitched Seashells with pretty pastels. Then she got really creative and used Flower Bouquet Wrap as a mermaid tail! So brilliant! She even made it more magical by cutting it from Pixie Dust Sparkle cardstock and inking it in shades of pink and purple!
Cheers to another summer filled with fun! Lynnette‘s line up of the Summer Friends is such a clever design! In addition to Scripty Cheers she included the little sayings and a sentiment on a Stitched Sentiment Banner.
Our adorable new Shello Friend critters play so nicely with Mermaid for You! Elena gathered them all in a beautiful underwater scene with a Stitched Wavy Backdrop!
Audrey‘s card featuring Stitched Seashells is so gorgeous! She used watercolor for the background and also to color the seashells! I love the little strip of Candy Cane Lane paper along the edge; it’s such a clever detail!
There’s buried treasure in the sand on Chari‘s charming Platform Pop-Up! She combined the little pirate from Ahoy Matey with a lighthouse from Smooth Sailing in fun island scene!
The Summer Friends are so cute paired with summery Fruit Salad petite paper! I love how Latisha arranged the smiling fruit and drinks on a circle with the happy sentiment!
The little Shello Friend cuties look right at home in Rebecca’s underwater scene made with Stitched Hillside Borders and Stitched Ripple Backdrop! I just love the little punny sayings in the bubbles, so sweet!
Mindy‘s seaside Platform Pop-Up is so beautiful! She inked then splattered Stitched Seashells, Platform Pop-Up Wave Wrap Around and Platform Pop-Up Palm Tree Inserts. And then she created a scene with the Life is Good sandcastle and lighthouse. The sentiment from Summer Friends is just right for this summery card!
We used Copic markers to give the Stitched Seashells a soft pastel look. And the sentiment from Shello Friend is so sweet on a Fancy Wavy Banner.
The cute fox from On the Beach finds this Platform Pop-Up scene very relaxing! She’s enjoying the shade from the Platform Pop-Up Palm Tree Inserts and the soothing “sound” of the Wave Wrap Around!
