Hi friends!  The Flavors of Fall Collection is coming August 6th from Catherine Pooler Designs!!  If you are a StampNation member you get to order early on August 5th!!

Our Flavors of Fall Collection was inspired by everything we love about the season: pumpkin patches, warm drinks, and the magic of cooler days.

We’re kicking things off with the Flavors & Borders Bundle—a charming product bundle that bring all the fall feels.


Flavors & Borders Bundle includes:

  • Flavors of Fall Dies
  • Autumnal Borders Stamp Set
  • Autumnal Borders Dies
  • Autumn Path Cover Plate Die

The Autumn Path Cover Plate Die is your perfect background addition for extra texture.  I love this Cover Plate die.  I did some masking and ink blending in the center of my card panel, then I ran it through my die cutting machine with the cover plate die.


I then added the adorable mug with a mushroom stamped on it and some leaves.  The sentiment was stamped using Macchiato ink.  Some sequins finish off this card.

These products hit the shop on Wednesday, August 6th, but StampNation Members get early access on Tuesday, August 5th!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

 

Hi friends!  I have another card to share today using the Studio Classics Collection.  I love it when I can use the patterned paper as the star of the show on cards.  This pattern is gorgeous.


The little bow in the Welcome Wreath die set works perfectly here to mimic ribbon.  I used direct to paper to color the bow and the strip of card stock.  I stamped and die cut the Happy Anniversary sentiment and added it to the card base.  You could have also just stamped directly onto the card base.

These products are in the Catherine Pooler Designs shop now!!! 

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

STUDIO CLASSICS FROM CP DESIGNS: WELCOME WREATH BUNDLE!!!

 

Hi friends!!!  The Studio Classics Collection celebrates 10 years of CP Designs by bringing back some of her most-loved early designs—refreshed and reimagined for today’s card maker.


Welcome Wreath Bundle Includes:

  • Welcome Wreath Dies
  • Stated Simply Stamp Set
  • Stated Simply Dies
  • Dreamy Damask Layered Stencils

We took our beloved Wonderful Wreath Stamp Set and transformed it into a die set that works for every season and occasion. The Welcome Wreath Dies are packed with greenery, florals, and decorative elements to build a full wreath or create a stunning swag. Whether you're going classic or modern, these dies are perfect for card-front designs and more.


I die cut the wreath from white card stock and then ink blended color over top.  I set that aside while I worked on the other pieces.  I used direct to paper to color the flowers on the wreath.  I ink blended color on the bird and the bow.


I stamped and die cut the sentiment and added it to the center of the wreath.  I added a strip of patterned paper down the side for some interest.

The Studio Classics Collection launches July 16th!

BALLOON LETTER BIRTHDAY COVER PLATE!!!

 

Hi friends!  I had some fun playing with the Balloon Letter Birthday Cover Plate die the other day.  I die cut the cover plate from a piece of white card stock and then did some ink blending over top, but I put another piece of white card stock under the die cut piece so I could make a second card.  It’s fun using cover plate dies as stencils.


I added a die cut sentiment from The Ton.


Here’s the second card I created using the cover plate as a stencil.  To add a bit more dimension to this card, I ran it through my Big Shot using the embossing pad with the cover plate die to make outlines on the letters.  It looks so cool in real life. 


So fun, right?!!!
