Greetings friends. Create Summer beach card making with a seaside goose. To build the scene, I added beach stenciling, sweet duck stamping, masking, fussy cutting and alcohol ink coloring. It is close to a one layer card with the exception of the sentiment tag. Ink blending was easy with the beach stencil. The featured Unity Stamp Company stamp and sentiment are from the July 2026 Whit-Kit card kit called Cool Goose Summer. To make the scene pop, I used die-cuts from Deckle and Stitches nesting dies. I include the project steps and supplies below.

To begin, here is a look at the finished card.
Sentiment: Soak up the sunshine!
Additionally, this is a look at the Whit-Kit Membership for July 2026. It is also available as a one-time full kit purchase and the stamps only.
Helpful Tips:
1. Prepare a vertical scored white card base 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.
2. Die-cut a rectangle on smooth white cardstock card front panel using the next-to-largest Deckle & Stitches nesting die.
3. Stamp the goose twice: once on the bottom right of the deckle rectangle piece and again on masking paper, using black alcohol friendly ink.
4. Fussy cut (cut out) the extra duck.
5. Color the duck on the rectangle piece using markers of choice. I used alcohol markers in shades of tan, yellow, light orange, red and light gray.
6. Mask the duck. Place repositionable adhesive behind the cut duck piece. Another option is to use masking sheets behind the duck.
7. Temporarily adhere the cut duck piece over the colorful duck on the rectangle panel.
8. Using By the Shore stencil, ink blend the beachy scene with light tan and three shades of teal dye ink.
9. Remove the duck masking and wipe away any adhesive dots left behind.
10. Stamp then die-cut the sentiment onto white cardstock with black ink using tag dies.
11. Adhere the card front and sentiment tag over the card base using double-sided foam tape or glue.
