Feel Better Card
Today I am sharing a card with you that I put a little different spin on.  I used the Just Wonderful Floral stamp set by Catherine Pooler Designs in two ways.


First up I started by stamping the Feel Better sentiment from the Forest Foliage stamp set repeatedly over Premium White Cardstock.  I then used the Just Wonderful Floral stamp and stamped the solid circles in Mardi Gras, Flirty Fuchsia, Orange Twist, Fiesta Blue & the new Lemongrass inks.  I die cut the panel down using one of the stitched dies from the Postage Stamps die set.  I stamped one of the largest blooms and a couple leaves, also with the Just Wonderful Floral stamp set and then die cut it with the coordinating Just Wonderful Floral dies.  I attached that to the card panel with dimensional tape.  


I wanted to try something different so I used a hole punch to notch a couple of 1/2 circles into the top and side of my card and wrapped black twine to the card front.  I used the notches to hold the twine in place (and added a small piece of tape on the back side of the card for additional support).  I attached the card panel to a piece of Midnight cardstock with dimensional tape and then added some Miami sequins to the panel to finish the card off.

Catherine Pooler Ink Color Combo Feature
I'm going to try a new feature on my blog.  I am ALWAYS look for new color combos to try and when I find one I like that I use on a card I want to share it with you in an easy to refer to format.  I may not always remember to do this but I'm going to try! 




I've created a Pinterest board that you are welcome to follow so that you can have some of these color combos right at your fingertips.  You can find that Pinterest board HERE.  There's not much on it yet, but as I add cards I'll add color combos there also.  There is also a link with this picture on the right hand side of my blog for easy reference.

So here is the color combinations for the Feel Better card I shared today.


Thank you for joining me today!! Have a great day!

You've Been on My Mind :)


I have another card to share with you today from the new Catherine Pooler Storybook Collection Release!



You've Been on my Mind
I haven't shown anything yet using products from the Father's Day Bundle so I wanted to do that today.  I found that these products are versatile and I love any set that can double for masculine projects...although I'm not sure that this one turned out too masculine. :)

Jen Carter Fluttering Friends Wild About You Deer

I first created the background by using my Life Changing Brushes to blend Sweet Sixteen, Flirty Fuchsia & Queen for a DayI love how it turned out!  I then sprayed some water on it to give it a night time sky look.  The stars, moon & moose were die cut from the Wild About You die set (FUN!!).

I cut the blended background into two pieces and added strips of Midnight cardstock on the bottom part. I stamped the sentiment from the new FIuttering Friends stamp set in between the two background pieces.  Then, each piece of background & the moose was popped up with dimensional tape.  

Color Combination
Here are the colors I used on this card.
