[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...

Lime All Yours

Hey all! I'm here sharing today's card with  Time for Tea Designs! I used the Squeeze the Day stampset to create this citrus filled card!  To create this card, I first took an A2 white panel and stamped the row of citrus fruits in yellow, orange, and green in an alternating pattern. This will be our background. Next, I stamped three citrus wedges (I decided to make mine limes) and one circle citrus. I colored them in various shades of green and yellow-green to resemble limes. After coloring and diecutting these out, I placed them on the left side of the panel with foam tape for dimension. I stamped the sentiment with white embossing powder on a black cardstock for contrast. This is my favorite way to show sentiments (if you can't tell already!) Lastly I added some dots of yellow and green on the left for some added interest. Thanks for stopping by! Jill

[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!
