Happy Halloween...better late than never!

 

I created these fun ATC cards for a swap with friends using the adorable Big and Bold Jack-O-Lantern from Colorado Craft Company!  The entire thing was watercolored with Catherine Pooler Inks.  I also added some white stars with Dr. Ph Martin's bleed proof white.  The sentiment was white embossed on black paper.

Boughs of Holly from Sweet November Stamps

 

I'm sharing my last cutie with you for today!!! I love this little sweetie and colored her in Copics.  Don't forget all the new digitals can be found at Sweet November Stamps.

The holly leaf is from Colorado Craft and was watercolored with Catherine Pooler Inks!

Hugs and Pears with Colorado Craft Company

 

Hi ya everyone!  If you know me at all, you know I'm a sucker for fruit stamps and while I don't post all the cards I make with fruit stamps, I do love them.  I couldn't resist the new Big and Bold stamps from Colorado Craft Company.  I used the Hugs and Pears stamp set that you can find HERE.

You also know that I adore my Catherine Pooler inks to watercolor with.  I used a number of gorgeous colors for this card, including: Eucalyptus, Green Tea, Spruce, Shea Butter, Polished, Sand Castle, Over Coffee, Icing on the Cake, Black Jack, Twilight and It's a Boy.  I used the fabulous Fabriano 140lb paper with my Silver Brush watercolor brushes.

Today I've created two cards for you using Catherine Pooler Inks for a watercolor look.  For the first card I've used the beautiful Lovely Legs Autumn Season stamp set and used the Catherine Pooler Paradise Found ink colors to watercolor the entire scene.  I've also paired it with the beautiful Fall Pick-n-Mix paper pack and the Just Thanks sentiment Die.  

I also added some beautiful embellishment with the fancy Mystic Sequins from Catherine Pooler.  I used Acquarelle watercolor paper.

For the next card I created a fun Wizard of Oz inspired creation using the new stamp set from Colorado Crafty Company called Ruby Slippers which is part of their BIG and BOLD collection.  The sentiments in this stamp set are just fabulous and it was so fun to watercolor those shoes!

Again, I used Catherine Pooler inks to watercolor the entire scene.  To finish this card off, I added Wanderlust sparkle to the shoes for a very sparkly slipper.  I also added Catherine Pooler sequins in Crater Lake and Aspen to the want tip to look like Glenda's beautiful wand.
