DEBUTING THE SEA BREEZE COLLECTION

Warm balmy breezes, glistening sun baked sand, and the sound of frothy waves lapping at the shoreline are the perfect assembling of elements to create a tranquil and soothing haven where a tired soul can find rest. The sights, smells, and sounds of the ocean somehow know how speak to your inner most being and conjure up feelings of fresh hope, renewed dreams, and a sense of well-being, as troubles are cast aside, drifting off to the bottom of the sea. A large, towering lighthouse stands vigilant, ready to bring those at on the water safely home while at the same time beckoning you to come for a closer look as you stroll across the gritty ground, bending low to gather tiny, opalescent sea shells as your meander along the shoreline. Enjoy the peace and tranquility that sea breezes carry as you immerse yourself in the beauty and solitude of the new Sea Breeze Collection from Heartfelt Creations! Roll up your pant legs and stroll through a captivating paper collection filled with hues of crisp ocean blues, light sandy browns, glistening corals, and stunning sunset oranges intertwined with faded yellows and fiery reds. Discover beautiful beach scenes displaying stately lighthouses, soaring seagulls, and elegant sailboats as you saunter through every page of this peaceful and calming assembling of artistically styled decorative papers. Stamp, color and die cut your very own seaside harbor retreats for all of your paper crafting creations with the wonderful assortment of cling stamp sets and coordinating dies, boasting detailed illustrations of sand engulfed fences, rocky lighthouse abodes, charming row boats, and pretty sea shells. So, shed your sandals, breathe deeply, and join us as we take in the soothing ambiance of the seaside with the breathtaking Sea Breeze Collection!

Instructions: Click here to view more photos of this project. Cut a piece of white cardstock 6 x 11”, score at 2 1/2” and 5 1/2”. This makes the easel part of the card. Cut a piece of the Sea Breeze paper down to 5 1/4 x 5 3/4 and adhere to the inside of the card. Stamp the ship and shells from the Sand and sunsets set on watercolor paper, use the Zig Watercolor markers to color and cut out with the coordinating die. Using the cardboard from the back of the paper pack, cut 3 more out and glue together, add the image on top making it chipboard. Do the same with the seashells, add to the bottom of the page. 
Cut a piece of white cardstock 5 1/2 x 6”. Add a piece of the Sea Breeze paper 1/4 inch smaller on top. Cut the largest Booklet frames out of white cardstock. Cut one of the Basic booklet frames out of the Sea Breeze paper, use the Gold marker and go around the edges, stamp the sentiment to the left side, gently curl the side in, add adhesive to the center and adhere to the white frame. Stamp the lighthouse on watercolor paper with black ink, use the Zig markers, color and cut out with the coordinating die, add foam dots to the back and adhere to the right side of the page. Stamp the seagulls on white cardstock with the Manganese Blue ink, cut out with the matching die and adhere above the Lighthouse.
Stamp the flowers on the Deluxe Flower shaping paper with the Manganese Blue ink, lightly color, use the coordinating die and cut out. Use the Flower shaping tool kit and shape the flowers. Stamp the leaves on the same paper with the Olive ink, color with the Leaf Green and cut out with the matching die, shape the leaves and adhere both the leaves and flowers to the left upper corner of the booklet page. Add glitter and Prills to finish the flowers. Add to the easel lower half to complete.
