Alpine Wishes

Today I chose to showcase the amazing patterned paper pack, In the Alps. Catherine Pooler always curates the patterns and colors with care, and this patterned paper pack is no exception. I layered three different patterns together, and paired it with the Wishes Word Die and All Around Wishes Stamp Set. This card also uses my tried and true Ultra Smooth White Cardstock and the beautiful Polished Ink.

Sending Pinecone Wishes

 

Catherine Pooler Designs newest collection, Nordic Woods has arrived! This collection is perfect for the holidays, or really versatile enough for year round. It takes its inspiration from the Swiss Alps or German Forests and folk art holiday markets. The patterns and images mix and match! 

I am showcasing the amazing Pinecone Greetings Stamp Set (which I hear is close to selling out, but more stock is on it's way!) 

My card started with a watercolor panel misted with water. I used a variety of the pinecone and greenery images from the Pinecone Greetings Stamp Set. I inked the stamp in various shades of brown (Over Coffee and Icing on the Cake for the pinecones) and misted the stamps with water before stamping onto the paper. I used Eucalyptus for the greenery and then added some berries from the previously released Boughs & Berries Stamp Set, I used Mandarin Spice for the ink.

To finish the card, I stamped the amazing set of greetings from All Around Wishes Stamp Set in Midnight ink right on top of the watercolor panel (after it was dry), splattered gold paint and adhered it to a card base that had been swiped with Eucalyptus.

I have a few more cards soon from the Nordic Woods collection, please check back for more inspiration! Did you know that Catherine Pooler Designs has an awesome essential tools collection, new items and restocks are usually added every Wednesday...check out the whole collection of new items here!!

Pinecone Season's Greetings

Catherine Pooler Designs newest collection, Nordic Woods is absolutely divine! Perfect for the holidays, or really versatile enough for year round. This collection has inspiration taken from the Swiss Alps or German Forests and folk art holiday markets. The patterns and images mix and match! The collection will be available tomorrow at 9am EST (early ordering for StampNation Members was today! Just one perk of being a SN member!)

The card I'm showcasing today features one of my favorite sets from Nordic Woods, the Pinecone Greetings Stamp Set and Pinecone Dies. They pair perfectly with items from my stash!

As usual, I started with a card base made from Ultra Smooth White Cardstock, I also die cut a frame from the previously released Chalkboard Frame Dies. Before adhering the elements to the card, I lightly drew a border from the chalkboard frame and inked directly onto the cardbase a background sky with Skylight. I then die cut pinecones and needles with the Pinecone Dies and then stamped the details of each with  Over Coffee sponged with Icing on the Cake for the pinecones, and then the pine needles were stamped in Eucalyptus-all from the Pinecone Greetings Stamp Set. I splattered some black paint and then adhered the elements onto the card. I finished the card with a bow made from Midnight Twine and a stamped sentiment from Pinecone Greetings Stamp Set.

I have a few more cards soon from the Nordic Woods collection, please check back for more inspiration! Did you know that Catherine Pooler Designs has an awesome essential tools collection, new items and restocks are usually added every Wednesday...check out the whole collection of new items here!!

Catherine Pooler Designs: Nordic Wood Collection

Have you caught the lives or replays on Catherine Pooler's You Tube or Facebook these past couple of days? She has showcased items from Catherine Pooler Designs newest collection, Nordic Woods! This collection has inspiration taken from the Swiss Alps or German Forests and folk art holiday markets. The patterns and images mix and match! The collection will be available Wednesday, October 28th at 9am EST (there is early ordering for StampNation Members- tomorrow, Tuesday the 26th at noon!)

This shaker card I am showcasing today features items from the Nordic Traditions Bundle...the beautiful background stamp, Sweater Weather, and the beautiful, intricate sentiment die, Wishes Word Die. I also used the new, coordinating All Around Wishes Stamp Set and Pinecone Greetings Stamp Set and Pinecone Dies, along with the beautiful Oak City Sequin Mix.

I started with a card base and a cut panel made from Ultra Smooth White Cardstock. Onto the panel, I stamped and white heat embossed the gorgeous Sweater Weather background stamp. I also die cut the Wishes Word Die from the panel, and then created a shaker card by adhering the panel onto the card base, on top of the Oak City Sequin Mix.

I then added the additional layer of the Wishes Word Die on top of the acetate and finished the card with a sentiment from the All Around Wishes Stamp Set and a small image from the Pinecone Greetings Stamp Set die cut with the coordinating Pinecone Dies. What a cozy, warm card this turned out to be, I love it!

I'm excited to showcase more cards soon from the Nordic Woods collection, please check back for more inspiration!
