Today, I’m sharing another summer-themed, beach scene crafted with die cuts.
I used my favorite red/white/blue scheme again! Hope you’re having a terrific day.

Die Cut Summer Nautical Scene
Today, I’m sharing a summer-themed lighthouse scene crafted with Taylored Expressions dies.
I’ve already proclaimed my love for the red, white and blue (in this case navy and a chambray blue) color scheme, especially during the summer. I added a little yellow to energize the scene. The sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp set.
Supplies: Taylored Expressions Little Bits – Lighthouse, Little Bits – Sailboat, Build A Scene – Rolling Waves, Build A Scene – Rolling Hills
CAS(E) This Sketch #132 Guest Designer
I’m delighted to be a guest designer this week for the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge #132.
Here’s my take on the sketch featuring a combination of Taylored Expressions die cuts:
To begin, I created a frame panel by die cutting with a nesting die. Next, I cut the Taylored Expressions Beach Border, onto which I had heat embossed the sentiment, and trimmed it, taping it to the back of the frame panel. I added the die cut sandcastle and flip flops to the beach border with dimensional adhesive. I adhered a yellow panel onto the heavyweight card base for the background. To finish, I adhered the white frame panel to the card base with dimensional adhesive.
Be sure to visit CAS(E) this Sketch to see the Design Team inspiration and to play along!
Supplies: Taylored Expressions Beach Border, Hangin’ Out at the Beach (sentiment)
Taylored Expressions Sunshine
Today, I’m sharing a summer-themed card featuring Taylored Expressions die cuts.
To begin, I cut the Rolling Waves in two shades of blue and adhered the waves onto the orange card base with dimensional adhesive. I tucked the sun into the corner, attaching it with dimensional adhesive. I cut the Pool Party border in white cardstock and adhered the Sunshine die cut in the corner with Tombow glue. I attached the border onto the waves with dimensional adhesive. I would love to be in this scene right now! Hope you’re having a wonderful day!
Supplies:
ColourQ #297
I’m playing along with ColourQ #297 with a CAS card featuring die cut birds in the challenge colors of navy, red and pool.
I cut the birds with the Taylored Expressions Birds and Branch die set (there are four birds in the set, I used three of the bird shapes). I added a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Hip Notes set, stamped in navy on white cardstock, trimmed with a Spellbinders rectangle die. The sentiment and the birds were adhered to the kraft base with dimensional adhesive.
