Welcome to another week of the Art With Heart Team Colour Creations Blog Hop! 🎨 A group of us are working our way through the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order, and this week, Week 17 is all about Coastal Cabana 💙🏖️.
For this week's project, I'm sharing my weekly journal page 📖✨. I actually created this a few weeks ago while recovering from a virus, and I think I was craving a little sunshine and happiness while resting. There's something about bright colours, beach scenes, and summer vibes that can lift your spirits, even on the quietest days. ☀️😊
Full Journal Page
I combined images and sentiments from the Capturing Smiles and Splash & Relax stamp sets to create a fun holiday-inspired layout 🌴🐚. Many of the die-cut pieces were already sitting in my box of crafty goodies, ready to be used. I love spending time cutting shapes from various colours and storing them away for future projects. It makes putting together a page like this so much quicker and helps use up those cardstock scraps.
The colour combination includes Coastal Cabana, Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Lost Lagoon, Basic Black, and Basic White, creating a bright and cheerful summer palette 🌞🌊.
For the beach photos, I coloured the images using Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, and Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends 🎨.
The designer series paper is from the Waterside Retreat DSP collection. Although much of it is covered with die cuts, it provides a lovely backdrop and ties the beach theme together beautifully 🏝️. I used the Rolling Waves Dies to create the die-cut wave border across the top of the page and also cut the foliage elements from the same die set.

The hidden journalling section is one of my favourite features of this layout 💕. The journalling pages are tucked behind the three DSP strips, providing plenty of space for memories while keeping the design clean and fun.
To create the layered effect:
- The bottom DSP strip is raised with two layers of Dimensionals.
- The middle DSP strip is raised with one layer of Dimensionals.
- The top DSP strip is adhered only on the sides and bottom.
This creates pockets where the journalling pages can slide in and out.
Journalling Pages Poking Out
The sentiments are from the Capturing Smiles stamp set and were cut using the Scalloped Blooms Dies, which has quickly become a must-have die set in my craft room 🌸. The detailed scalloped edges add the perfect finishing touch.
Journalling Pages
I love how this layout came together with its sunshine-filled colours, beachy elements, and hidden journalling spots ☀️🌊📖. It's a lovely reminder that even when life slows us down, a little creativity can brighten our day.
I hope this cheerful journal page inspires you and puts a sunny smile on your face too 😊💛.
