New Catherine Pooler, Forever 13, Release

Hey There Crafty Friends! It’s sneak peek day at Catherine Pooler for the final bundle, Zest, of the new Forever 13 release scheduled for Wednesday at 9:00 AM EST. If you are a member of CP’s StampNation, early ordering has already begun, and SN members receive a free 2″ X 3″ stamp set for ordering early.

Finally, I can begin sharing some of my new cards for this release! Today, I have a card that I heat embossed using the new Fresh Squeezed background stamp with Wanderlust WOW glitter embossing powder on watercolor paper, and then watercolored using CP ink refills. Now, here is a tip: Wanderlust is a WOW glitter embossing powder in the CP store, and it’s a little chunky to use with watercoloring. You will not get the smooth, clean edge you get with a fine detail powder. I just wanted to warn you before you use it, and may not like the results. It’s just a glitter powder verses a fine detail powder. However, I like the glittery result on this! Also, I embossed the background on CP white cardstock using the Fresh Squeezed stamp and Wanderlust embossing powder for extra glitter-iness!

I used Suede Shoes ink directly to the CP cardstock to create my own colored backgrounds for extra pop! Also, I used it as the background color on the watercolor panel. Next I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from the Zest Bouquet StampSet on vellum, and wrapped around the dies cut using the Nested Oval Dies. You know I love to add lots of dimension with foam tape, and completed it all with some pretty yellow and white twine.

So, what do you think? I love how the yellows and oranges pop with the blues, and everyone needs this set of oval dies as a staple in their collection! This is such a fun release. Have you seen everything else? It’s all so totally cool! Happy shopping. Love and crafty hugs!
