Serenity: Color Coordinates with Shari Carroll
Ocean breeze… walks on the beach.. day in the spa… this is Serenity! I’d like my house painted in all of these colors, they are so peaceful!! I’ve picked out colors that are all muted in nature, some slightly darker, some lighter. I’ve included three NEW colors Seafoam, Dusty Sage and Winter Sky. Aren’t they amazing?
Even though there are blue and greens, this combination is gender neutral. I’ve created my card using the Dina Wakeley Circle Patterns stamps because they went so well with my beachy theme and show off the ink colors. The die cut Wildflowers are what make this a feminine card. I would make a card like this in batches and add messages later for events or occasions.
I’ve filmed a video with the process to create this card. You can view it below or on our YouTube channel HERE.
