Today I’m sharing a playful and vibrant card featuring the brand-new Poolside Pets stamp set from the Big Splash release by Catherine Pooler Designs. These whimsical floaties bring a joyful summer vibe to any project—and I had a blast bringing them to life!
To create the soft poolside background, I tried something new: I made a homemade dauber using Press'N Seal! With it, I gently dabbed on the new Pistachio ink color through masked areas where the floaties were stamped. It added a subtle, splashy texture that’s perfect for a lighthearted scene.
All the floaties were stamped directly onto the card front and colored using Copic Markers. I went for bold, juicy colors to really make them pop against the Pistachio background. Isn't that watermelon floatie adorable?
To finish it off, I added a fun sentiment—“Party Time!”—curved across a die cut from the "Take a Dip Shaker Die" (it's the slide!!!) and adding a playful touch that makes this card perfect for birthdays or summer celebrations.
I hope this card inspires you to play with your supplies in new ways! Whether you’re diving into new techniques or just floating along with your creativity, the Big Splash release is packed with possibilities.
The Big Splash release will be available in the Catherine Pooler shop on Wednesday June 11th at 9am EST. But for StampNation members, they get to shop EARLY! Sign into the shop as a StampNation member and you can shop at noon on Tuesday June 10th.
