Sea You Soon: Nautical-Themed Cards | Featuring Love From Lizi’s "To The Beach" Card Kit

There's something timeless about a nautical theme—the crisp blues, bold reds, and playful seaside imagery evoke relaxation and adventure all at once. Love From Lizi’s To The Beach card kit captures that charm beautifully, and I had so much fun creating these three coastal-inspired cards!

Card 1: Beach Essentials

For this card, I wanted to showcase the fun little beach elements in the kit—flip-flops, a bucket and shovel, and of course, a seagull! I arranged them on stitched circle die cuts over a patterned background featuring more seaside goodies. To create the layout, I used Gina K. Designs Master Layouts 3 dies, which helped create a perfectly balanced card design. The layering adds dimension while the deep blue card base ties everything together. The Sea You Soon sentiment banner completes the design with a playful touch!

Card 2: Lighthouse by the Waves

This one gives off classic nautical vibes! I layered a red-striped panel over a soft blue background to frame the detailed lighthouse die-cut. To create contrast, I used an oval frame with swirling waves behind the lighthouse, adding a sense of movement. I used Gina K. Designs Master Layouts 1 dies to cut the stitched panel and layering elements, ensuring clean, even edges. A few heart embellishments and the sentiment banner make this the perfect card for someone who loves the sea!

Card 3: Vintage Beach Charm

The third card was inspired by vintage beach postcards. The illustrated beach huts and deck chairs create a charming backdrop, while the retro-styled beach girl die-cut adds personality. I used Gina K. Designs Master Layouts 2 dies to cut the stitched and layered rectangles, making it easy to frame all the elements beautifully. The mix of soft blue and bold red enhances the nostalgic feel. I love how this one turned out—so fun and full of summer vibes!

Final Thoughts

This kit was a joy to work with! The coordinating colors, textures, and imagery made it easy to create cohesive designs that bring a little bit of the beach to paper. Using Gina K. Designs Master Layouts die sets helped streamline the die-cutting process and made layering effortless. Whether you're crafting for summer birthdays, travel lovers, or just to send a little sunshine, To The Beach is the perfect kit for creating seaside-inspired cards.
