My first card was inspired by a blue and white beachy pillow I found on-line. The Nantucket die cuts were perfect! I layered a few of these along with Nantucket ribbon, punched butterflies from the 6x6 paper pad and a Vintage Vogue wooden spool, also by Pink Paislee.
To create the card, I cut a long piece of white cardstock about and folded the 2 long ends in towards each other, overlapped them in the front and adhered, then stitched along the edges. I punched a hole at the top with a 2" circle punch for inserting money or a gift card for the sweet birthday girl. I added a stamped sentiment by Papertrey Ink from the Mega Mixed Messages stamp set. (I seem to use that one a lot lately.)
The next card was inspired by these frames I saw online. Loved the little weathered strips, so I decided to cut my 6x6 Nantucket papers into strips and randomly sew them together. I didn't want them to be straight. I think it adds to the casual "beachy" feel. Two Nantucket die cuts were added over the top and two wooden pieces from the Nantucket Wood Shapes!

Your cards are awesome. Love them very much. Today a little package arrived with the Nantucket line. I ordered it just a few days ago. Can't wait to use it after seeing all the beautiful projects you created with this line. Bye Irene from the Netherlands
These are adorable Danielle! I especially love the little money pocket you've created! And this Nantucket line Mmmmmmm !!!
I had wanted the wooden pieces the first time I saw them but I'd convinced myself I did not need this collection.This changed all that-just stunning.Now I am loving the soft,sweet color.
Ugh!!! I ordered all the Nantucket stuff I thought I wanted from 2 Peas, but I skipped the wood shapes and trading card thingies and now I totally regret that decision! I'm going to have to go back and get them. *sigh*
