Tired of palm trees and flip-flops and the tropics in every beach kit? Northern Beaches by Clever Monkey Graphics brings you something different—a beach kit made for the cooler side of the coast. Think seafoam crashing on stone, magical sea stacks that are home to bird populations, beachcombing for shells in your sweatshirt or jacket, and sunsets that often glow through the misty fog that is rolling in. That is not to that say this collection doesn't capture enough beachiness to scrap layouts from southern beaches or to create a page about your favorite aquarium—there are plenty of elements and papers and a ton of word art to help you tell your stories. Besides, even Northern Coastlines enjoy beautiful summery days.  With layered textures, cozy tones, and playful elements, this kit captures the soul of northern shorelines with warmth and whimsy. 

Here's an idea of the pages you can scrap with this collection...
A first trip to the ocean
A day at the beach with the kids & building sand castles
Collecting seashells and treasures
Tidal pool explorations
Whale-watching tour memories & sightings from shore
Beach picnic or bonfire night
