Multi Water Color look with solid stamps | Catherine Pooler Designs

Hello everyone! I am back from vacation, just came in the morning! I will be back to my daily routine very soon! Here is another card made using Catherine Pooler's Stamp of Approval Naturally Inspired Collection.

The technique I used here was - Stamped Water Color Images / water color look with solid stamps. Yes! you can achieve a beautiful water colored image with solid stamps. 

I started by inking up the beautiful leaf from Wild Garden in It's a Girl, Pixie Dust and Lime Rickey inks. Then I spritz some water with a mini mister and stamped it onto the card base. This creates a beautiful three toned water color leaf. I stamped the images with the same technique thrice forming a visual triangle. Once the card panel was dry I went ahead and added tiny splatters of black paint to enhance the beauty of the design.

Once everything was dry, I stamped the sentiments from Birds of a Feather and Simply the Best stamp sets in Midnight Ink. Finally I finished the card with a few clear sequins. This is a very simple yet beautiful card. I love this water color technique (water color look with solid stamps) a lot. I hope you liked it too. Thank you so much for visiting. :)​

Fancy Plaid Background | Catherine Pooler Designs | Video

How about a Fancy Plaid Background this time? My sister gifted me a plaid dress, I thought it doesn't suit me! But after doing a few alterations, it just looked good on me and I'm loving it. So I was inspired by that plaid design and created these cards. 

This is such a simple card and you can mass produce them easily. I didn't have a Misti but if you do have one then your job would be much easier than mine! (Inks used - Tutti Frutti and Sweet Sixteen Inks).

(Inks used Aquatini and Tiara Inks). I started my card by stamping the background repeatedly with one of the striped stamps from Yay Stripes Stamp Set in various colors.

(Inks used Rockin' Red and Garden Party Inks). Then onto a white card stock I stamped the sentiment from Hip Holiday (SOA - Candy Cane Lane Collection) in Midnight Ink, fussy cut it and adhered it onto the card front.

Finally I embellished the card with Gold Sequins. I have also created a video for you, watch and enjoy! :)
