Introducing!

Today is our showcase of Summer Friends and its coordinating dies and coloring stencils! Summer is always more fun with friends! With these sippin’ sweeties and fruity cuties you’ll be celebrating the warm summer vibes in style! With so many clever puns you’ll find a way to spread smiles all summer long!

We will also introduce two new summer-themed Platform Pop-Up sets with Palm Tree Inserts and Wave Wrap Around! This tropical palm tree insert adds even more scene versatility to your Platform Pop-Up! Layer your palm tree insert on the original middle insert for perfect placement. Use the included beachy hill with dotted details to complete your scene. You can also take the the Palm Tree Inserts off the platform and onto a card for even more fun!

Use the new Wave Wrap Around to create an ocean wave scene that wraps around your Platform Pop-Up. This set adds lots of scene versatility to this already amazing interactive set!

And we have more ocean themed fun for you! Introducing Shello, Friend and Stitched Seashells! Say “shello” to our new friends from the sea! Use the bubbles for the pun-filled sentiments or let the little sea friends hitch a ride on the current by stamping them inside. With so many ways to craft you will have a great time shell-ebrating any special occasion! And finally with Stitched Seashells you will find a variety of adorable beach treasures to adorn your summer cards and crafts!

Design Team Inspiration

The design team has made the most amazing samples! We also have a video at the end showcasing some fun ways of using all these new goodies! Remember to click on the person’s name to see all of the details and then leave these wonderful DT girls some comment love!

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!
