Catherine Pooler Designs Unsinkable Release Blog Hop

Hey Everyone! 
Welcome to the hop for Catherine Pooler Designs Unsinkable Release.
This release is awesome! I have had SO MUCH FUN playing with all the products and I think it's safe to say that the whole team feels the same way.


Be sure to leave a comment below because someone is going to win a 
$25 Gift Certificate to the SHOP.

Let's get started, I've got 3 cards to share with you today.

When I first saw this release two cards instantly came to mind.
One I will share with you tomorrow in the video hop and the other one 
I'm sharing with you today.
A mermaid tail.

This card features the following:
- Big Sur Sequin Mix
- Hook Line and Sinker


I drew a mermaid's tail, cut it out and covered it with sequins from the Big Sur Sequin Mix. Really easy! The background is made using the Sunburst Stencil and sponging on Tiki Torch and Tiara inks and then covering a die cut circle with the same inks for the sun. The water is made with Aquatini, Fiesta Blue, All That Jazz, Mardi Gras and Something Borrowed. I used water color paper and added the inks with a water brush. Catherine's inks are great for water coloring with. 
I added the sun, water and beach onto the card base, topped it with a panel that I die cut a circle from using craft foam for dimension. I adhered the mermaid along the edge of the circle and then stamped the sentiment.

This next card features the By the Sea Stamps and Dies which is only available to StampNation members only. Are you a member? If not, you might want to check it out - it's a never ending source of fun, inspiration, encouragement and friendship.


The water is from the same piece that I made for the above card. I stamped all the images and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I colored them in using a blender pen and created a little beach scene. I think this is where Catherine was sitting when she came up with the idea for this release. The sentiment is from the Fluttering Friends Stamp set.

My last card features:
- Refuse To Sink Stamp Set
- Refuse To Sink Dies
- Shell Parade Stencil
- Big Sur Sequin Mix
- Vitamin Sea Stamp Set
- Vitamin Sea Dies


The background is stamped with the Woodgrain stamp set onto Sand Dunes card stock with Sand Castle ink. The edges are sponged with the same ink. I very lightly blended It's a Boy and Mardi Gras inks onto white card stock with the Shell Parade Stencil and then die cut it with a circle die adding a little sponging around the edges. The anchor is my favorite thing on this card. I stamped it with versamark ink and embossed it with Black Magic Embossing Powder. I love the way it turned out. I layered everything onto the card adding the anchor with craft foam and then finished it with a few sequins from the Big Sur Sequin Mix.

Now it' time to hop!
But before you go make sure to leave a comment here telling me what your favorite product is from this release. Remember someone is going to win a $25 Gift Certificate to SHOP in Catherine's store. Winners will be announced Monday, August 12th on Catherine's Blog

Your cards are lovely, I especially like the "clubhouse" card using the SN exclusive set. When CP first showed this set I was on the fence about it, but the more I've seen made using it, the more I see its potential.

True story, I'm one of the people who have benefited from Dr. Ogbeifun Love Spell. Dr. Ogbeifun appeared in the middle of my life when all hope was lost. I gave up on life and thought the best way to care for my broken heart. I have several experiences with my husband who have been working with me for many years. I made up my mind to continue with my suicide before a strange spirit. Afterwards, Dr. Ogbeifun Temple, I reluctantly looked for and found testimonials and recommendations for him via his email. He answered and asked me to go away and take my life; he said that my case is solvable after consulting his Oracle. Well, here I am today thanking Dr. Ogbeifun for saving my life and bringing back my Husband. We are so happy today and happier than we have ever been. He also helped me stop my cardiac arrest problem. I am grateful for being among the people sharing this testimony. Contact him at this email ogbefunhearlingtemple@gmail.com call or add him on whatsapp +2348102574680 website

My name is Valary West.I'm from Canada, My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behaviour from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone else. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help.

As I was browsing through I am very happy today with my family. My name is West Valary  living in Canada, My husband left me for good 3 months now, and i love him so much, i have been looking for a way to get him back since then. i have tried many options but he did not come back, until i met a friend that darted me to Dr. Odumeje a spell caster, who helped me to bring back my husband after 48 hours. Me and my husband are living happily together today, That man is great, you can contact him via email odumejetemple@gmail.com .

I want to share with you my testimony of how I joined this great organization of new world order, Really I was so poor in my life was almost close to death, i tried many times to join but all was in vain where by i was facing fake people who were claiming to be agents . They ate my money without helping me out there. I lost hope totally. But because i was interested and focused on my dream, I continued trying there I meet another person who told me he will help me out still i didn't trust him at all because of the first pain i passed through,he still also asked me to send him money there i got scared but with time he sent me his membership id card,trust in him little and i accepted to send him money, but what amazed me is that immediately after sending him money for initiation items, i got initiated within 2hour onlines and i receive my $1,000,000 directly to my account there i trusted him more and he is the only agent i trust because he helped me seriously. So my friend if you want to join contact him through whatsapp + 2348180828544

STOP WASTING YOUR TIME ON FAKE PEOPLE WHO CLAIM TO BE AN AGENT I WAS SCAMED 4TIMES NOT UNTIL I RECIEVE A MESSAGE ON MY WHATSAPP TO CONTACT MR HARRIS WHICH I DID NOW I AM A FULL MEMBER OF THE GREAT ILLUMINATI BROTHERHOOD BE WHAT YOU WHICH FOR IN LIFE BY JOINING THE GREAT ILLUMINATI BROTHERHOOD TODAY Further encouraging the rumours is the widespread use of supposed "Illuminati" imagery in music videos. Many Freemason and Illuminati symbols, like devil horns and the all-seeing eye, have simply become popular in mainstream culture. But it's also true that some musicians seem to enjoy deliberately playing with symbols connected to secret societies.if you are interested contact via whatsapp or call +14092993890 GOOD LUCK.
