Today's card has to be one of my favorites that I created with the Out West Collection from Catherine Pooler Designs that was just released! 

It's simple but full of mixed media too! I started with a card base of watercolor paper and created a soft background with Hot Tub and Green Tea Inks. After the background dried, I created another layer by outlining the Triangle Cover Plate pattern (I cut a stencil from it!) with a black pen. Love the look that this gives, and takes a cover plate to a whole new level!

I finished the card with a simple sentiment made from the Explore Word Die. I stacked three of them together, and the top piece was watercolored with Polished Ink.

Here are the ink colors I've used...what a pretty combination!

One of the best parts of cardmaking for me, even after all these years of making cards, is trying to stretch my supplies and get different looks. I can't wait to see if you try this technique too!

The Out West Collection is influenced by the Southwest, boho love and nature but really is perfect for any card. You can order individual products, bundles like Dream Big, Shine On, Wanna Hug or you can order it all!
