Shade Break

By Patrick Hill

Stay Out of the Sun Day invites a softer side of summer. Balmy Blue feels like open shade while Soft Sea Foam brings in a cool leafy calm.

Basic Beige keeps the look relaxed and Lost Lagoon adds quiet depth. This is a peaceful mix for projects that feel breezy, restful and easy on the eyes.

Why

Soft blues, seafoam and beige suggest relief from bright sun while Lost Lagoon adds cool shade.

Projects

Use this combination for wellness notes, porch-themed cards, summer journals, reading trackers or scrapbook pages about slowing down indoors.
