Let’s see how our amazing Design Team was inspired by this new theme!

Franci created a fun underwater scene featuring our Mermaid for You set! She added some whimsy with a sand castle made with Build-A-Castle! The cute puffer fish peeking through the window is from Keep on Swimming.

Samantha incorporated our new Giant Sending Big Hugs sentiment into her beautiful ink-blended ocean scene! She combined Ocean Shell-fie, Fintastic Friends and Life is Good to add all the cute critters!

Our cute Get Well Before ‘n Afters set features this adorable whale! Caly created an underwater scene for her Magic Picture Changer card! She filled in with fishy critters from You Are Sublime and Ocean Shell-fie!

Joyce created a slimline underwater birthday scene! With cute ocean critters from Ocean Shell-fie, You Are Sublime and Mermaid for You it’s quite the party! She used Ocean Wave Stencils to add the fun backdrop and Virtual Friends for the computer and sentiment!

Karin‘s sweet and simple framed design uses Smooth Sailing to depict a lovely day on the water!

Samantha‘s gorgeous glittery ocean is framed by Tropical Backdrop palms and the Hello Border! She added a lighthouse from Life is Good along with the kraken and ship from Lovable Legends to create a mythical scene!

Christy‘s beautiful underwater scene sends a sweet message with Giant Sending Big Hugs! She combined cute aquatic critters from Ocean Shell-fie and Fintastic Friends on a gorgeous inky ocean backdrop!

Jessica‘s beautiful design takes us to the ocean depths on a yellow submarine from You Are Sublime! Watch out for the kraken, he just wants to say happy birthday!

Jenn‘s three cute kitties are enjoying some fun at the beach in her fantastic design! She used Sunrise Backdrop to add the sunshine! She created this happy summer scene with Meow You Doin’, On the Beach and Life is Good!

Our Design Team loves to Create A Scene on a card!

Jessica starts us off with a little slice of paradise! Her On the Beach scene includes an interactive slider for the Smooth Sailing sailboat! I love how she added so much great detail to the die cut palm trees!

Joyce‘s sunny scene features lots of our ocean-themed sets including You Are Sublime, Keep on Swimming, Fintastic Friends, Get Well Before ‘n Afters and Ahoy Matey! She used Stitched Wave Borders and Simple Stitched Hillside Borders as scene builders!

I love how Karin used a Stitched Rectangle and an Outside In Stitched Circle to create a fun frame for her Toadally Awesome scene!

Samantha used layers of beautiful color to set the stage for her scene in which Swan Soirée and Rub-A-Dub-Dub are combined!

Franci‘s fantastic scene takes us to Australia with a gorgeous sunset! She used all the fun critters and trees from Critters Down Under!

Caly used Cattails Border to create a silhouette horizon for this beautiful bayou scene! She filled the scene with critters from Toadally Awesome and Swan Soirée!

Joyce joins us today to share her adorable, underwater scene inspired by Finding Nemo!

Joyce assembled her cast of characters and scenery from Fintastic Friends, You are Sublime, Duh-nuh, Get Well Before ‘n Afters and Mermaid for You!

She used a Stitched Hillside Border for the ocean floor and did some amazing ink blending to create the watery backdrop! Then she white embossed the sentiment from You are Sublime directly on the background!

Thanks so much for sharing with us today, Joyce! Marlin, Nemo and Dory along with all their friends are adorable!
