[Party Colored Cardstock] Catherine Pooler Designs

Hey everyone! I’m excited to share a simple and lovely card featuring the new colored cardstock from Catherine Pooler Designs. If you love high quality cardstock as much as I do this release is definitely one to check out.

For this card I paired the Grosgrain strips with the Sentiment Dies to create an elegant design that really lets the color and texture shine. The cardstock is beautifully heavyweight which made it incredibly easy to die cut. Clean cuts no fuss and no tearing. It truly made the whole process a breeze.

I love how versatile this cardstock is whether you’re creating layered designs or keeping things clean and simple like this card. The colors are rich and vibrant and I can already tell I’ll be reaching for them often in future projects.

Do you have a favorite color from this release yet I’d love to hear which ones you’re loving most.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Be sure to follow me on Instagram for more crafty inspiration projects and behind the scenes fun.

Happy crafting!
Jill

[Oceans of Joy] Multi-Occasion Card

I am still building my cardmaking collection, and it is SO easy to get into the blackhole of buying endless craft supplies. I really need to stop myself. I came across this adorable ocean themed stamp set, Oceans of Joy , from Sunny Studio Stamps! Head on over to my Instagram to see a reel on how I made this card! I wanted to create a fun wavey background so I took some scrap cardstock and cut a "wave" pattern and used it as my stencil with a blending sponge and my Stampin' Up spot inks. I LOVE how it turned out. I wanted to add more texture so I purposefully blended with differing pressures to get some texture in the background. I can't wait to make and use more stencils in my cardmaking. I stamped the sentiment, whale, crab, and water images using my misty on some textured white cardstock and colored in using my Prismacolor colored pencils. In hindsight, I wish I had used a smooth white cardstock instead, as it makes the coloring look a little messier than I...

[Hello Beautiful] Patterned Paper Series #1

Okay, I will admit I am a girly girl. and this card made me all kinds of happy. I came across this freebie from All Dressed Up Stamps and immediately had so many ideas. I first gravitated towards a solid cardstock as my mounting base but then decided to have some fun with patterned cardstock. I have lots of patterns but find myself being too afraid to mix and match patterns. Hence, explaining the origin of my "Patterned Paper Series." I colored in the digital image using alcohol markers on white cardstock. I had a patterned paperpad from Recollections called "Get Glam" and used one of the "hello beautiful" sentiments that was already printed on the paper. I attached it with some foam squares to give a little added dimension. Easy right?! I mounted it on a hot pink cardstock and then mounted the whole set on a white and black polka dot cardstock from the same paperpad. Not only do I love using patterned paper as a background, but I also like using it fo...

[Good Luck Critters Rainbow] Time for Tea Designs

Hey all! I'm here sharing another card featuring the Time for Tea Designs "Good Luck Critters" stampset. I first used the "Rounded Rectangle" die set to cut one panel in white cardstock and one in red. I ink blended the white cardstock with "Tumbled Glass" Distress Oxide around the edges. I added some blue splatters for added interest. I cut in the rainbow and cat image from the stampset and colored in with alcohol markers and finished it off with a sentiment Thanks for stopping by!
