It's time for a new release over at Catherine Pooler Designs. Today myself and some of my favorite designers are hoping along and sharing with you cards that we created using the new release products.
The Welcome Home release is just gorgeous. It's full of line images that you can color to create beautiful garden scenes. But if you are like me, and not so much into coloring, we have products for you too!
My first card uses The Strolling Borders stamp set and the Ways to Say Hey dies.
The Strolling Borders stamp set is perfect for creating stones pathways, but also wonderful for creating background. Here I stamped it in Mint to Be and Aquatini inks and then added the Hey There sentiment strip in Midnight card stock.
I really wanted that sentiment to pop and that contrast certainly does the trick! This card is easy peasy and comes together quickly without a whole lot of fuss.
My next card features the Marble Swirl Background stamp.
I went with a neutral, monochromatic color combo of Twilight and Black Jack. You see three colors above because the Twilight was stamped off once for the lightest shade. I can't wait to pair it with florals. I think it will be a beautiful combo.
Time to hop along now. Leave comments to be entered to win a $25 gift certificate!

Enjoy the hop and happy shopping!

Such beautiful cards. That stone pattern in the first one reminds me of the art deco style of the 1920s and/or a ginkgo leaf. So cool!

The marble swirls stamp is awesome. Love the cards!
Love your cards. They are amazing.

Fun to see these two stamps used for the backgrounds. Great colors!
Your hey there card reminds me of a mermaids tail, and the greys in the marble card are stunning. I think you’re right, a beautiful floral design on top of that would really make a statement.
Really loving the Strolling Boarders stamp! The marble card is simple, but would be great as a masculine card. Great cards!
