A Summer of Creation

There is something about summer that feels expansive.

The light lingers longer.
The days feel open.
And there is an invitation to create… in your own way.

This season, I wanted to showcase a few kits that feels like stepping into summer worlds 

The collection was created for anyone who loves ocean-inspired journaling, coastal textures, soft beach colors, and vintage summer aesthetics. Every kit was designed to work together so you can create layered, cohesive journals filled with little pieces of summer.

All of these kits are available as digital downloads in my Etsy shop so you can print and start creating right away. Just click on the images to shop

Ocean Dreams Collection 

The Ocean Dreams were inspired by soft ocean blues, beach textures, warm sandy tones, and vintage coastal details. These pages are perfect for creating layered journal spreads, backgrounds, pockets, and inserts that feel like a peaceful summer escape near the sea.

To complete the collection, I created matching tags, ephemera, cards, tickets and tabs that bring everything together. These pieces were designed to add layering and little ocean-inspired details throughout your journal pages. The soft coastal colors and vintage summer aesthetic work beautifully together and make it easy to create cohesive spreads.

The background papers were designed with soft coastal textures, ocean-inspired tones, and gentle beach details that work beautifully for layering and collage. They add depth and warmth to your journal pages while still keeping that airy summer feel. These papers are perfect for backgrounds, pockets, torn layers, tags, and creating cohesive coastal-themed spreads throughout your journal.

Ocean Dreams Mini Folio 

This folio is perfect for tucking in journaling cards, notes, ephemera, and small keepsakes. It makes a beautiful addition to your junk journals and adds an interactive layered element to your coastal-themed creations.

Coastal Words & Summer Phrases

One of my favourite parts of this collection is the coastal words and summer phrases. They add a storytelling element to your pages and are perfect for layering onto clusters, tags, pockets, and collage spreads. These little details help bring the feeling of summer and ocean memories into your journals.

Beach Lovers Tote Bag Folio

 The Beach Lover’s Tote Bag Folio was designed to feel playful, bright, and full of summer energy. Inspired by beach bags, coastal vacations, sunglasses, sunscreen, and warm beach days, this folio makes a beautiful interactive journal project for the season.

Beach Diary Blue Stripes Papers

The Beach Diary papers bring a brighter summer feeling into the collection with blue striped textures, beach-inspired imagery, and relaxed coastal vibes. These papers are perfect for summer memory keeping, travel journals, and creative collage pages inspired by days near the ocean.

I hope these kits bring a little coastal summer magic into your creative space 🐚
