Catherine Pooler Designs All That Jazz Blog Day 1


Hi Stampers! 
Welcome to Day #1 of the Catherine Pooler's March release! The new All That Jazz release will be LIVE in Catherine Pooler’s online store on Tuesday, March 20th at 9am EST. This release consists All that Jazz ink, 2 background stamps, 6x8 stamp set and coordinating dies, 2 word dies, one new stencil, vellum, sand dunes card stock and Black Tie Gala patterned paper, plus the Stamp of Approval Counting Blessings collection. 
You should have arrived here from Justine's blog, but if you didn’t, you can find the whole blog hop list at the bottom of this post. 
And your next stop will be Maureen and you don't want to miss her amazing creations.
I have couple cards to share with you today. The first one uses the new Sand Dunes card stock along with the vellum. I used the new Square Dance stencil and applies Gel transfer medium, let it dry and applied Opal foil using my mini Minc Machine. I die cut piece of vellum using Tags etc dies (Counting blessings SOA), stamped the floral from the new Grateful Heart floral using versamark and embossed with white embossing powder. As well I stamped "for you" from the Autumn Blessings set (SOA). I die cut Thankful three times from Premium white card stock and adhered them together. I used Nuvo shimmer pen to add some sparkle. I assembled my card and added some twine.



For my second card I used the new Polka dot background stamp and stamped with It's a Boy ink. Stamped the floral from Grateful Hearts and die cut it. I added some Nuvo Shimmer Pen and Crystal Effects. I added sentiment, little strip from the Black Tie Gala patterned paper. Stamped sentiment from Leaf Motifs set and assembled my card.
