Purple sympathy card with yellow flowers and butterflies, reading Thinking of You During This Difficult Time; Simon Says Stamp release.

Hello Lovelies! I promise that I haven't tricked you. All beachy colors are not blue, at least not in my rainbow. Today we are coloring a sunset of waves using pastel inks and the Beach Bird's Eye Cover Plate from Simon Says Stamp's Shine On Release. This fun sentiment captures the mood perfectly and is included in the Chill Vibes stamp set to finish our Summer Beachy Card.

Handmade pastel layered card on purple envelope reads In My Summer Season, with wavy bands and sequins on a soft craft background. — I'm want a soft life this summer and this card sets that tone.
