Sunshine in my pocket

A Review of Catherine Pooler Inks

September 13, 2018 Paper Crafting

Hello! Did you know that you can do so many things with Catherine Pooler Inks? You can stamp, of course, but you can also do some ink blending and watercoloring with them!

Today I have a fun fall project with the new Catherine Pooler ink, Coral Cabana, that came in the September Hedgehog Hollow subscription box.

First, I took that ink and a few other ink colors and blended them on Bristol Smooth paper using a round ink blending tool.

These inks blend beautifully on this Bristol Smooth paper!

Once I had that background blended, I stamped and gold embossed the florals from the HH Subscription box and used these inks to WATERCOLOR on them!

I also used the same Bristol Smooth paper for this. I also used some Zig Clean color markers to color up the green leaves. I wanted this to feel like a FALL card, so I picked my interpretation of fall colors for this card.

Then I cut a banner shape from my stash, ink blended on that banner, and STAMPED the sentiment using the Coral Cabana ink.

And Voila! A beautiful card using three methods with the very same inks! If you haven’t tried these inks, I would definitely recommend them!

I popped up the banner and one of the florals with Scotch 3M foam tape, and used my Nuvo liquid adhesive to attach the rest. To finish it off, I added Jewel Nuvo drops (these are translucent with a hint of color…which I love)!

I hope I inspired you give all three methods a try with your inks: stamping, watercoloring, and ink blending. Enjoy!
