Sometimes a quick & simple bold card is all you need, especially in a hurry. This card took minutes to make due to some beautiful plaid pattern paper from the new Catherine Pooler Designs release called Beautiful New Year! This comes from the gorgeous Fleur De pattern paper pack, and these colours just shine happiness and warmth! To create a bold impact, a simple bold heat embossed sentiment that contrasts with the pattern paper adds plenty of impact. So let’s get started.
PRODUCED AS PART OF MY BRAND AMBASSADOR WORK FOR CATHERINE POOLER DESIGNS - SEE END OF POST FOR MORE DETAILS
Quick & simple bold card: creating the bold panel
Start off by trimming down a piece of the plaid pattern paper from the Fleur De pattern paper to 5″ x 3.75″. Next, position this inside you MISTI stamping platform and place the bold ‘Thanks’ sentiment from the Sincere Thanks stamp set towards the top centre third.

Using your WOW! Clear Ultra Slow Drying embossing pad stamp the sentiment directly onto the paper. Next, cover this with WOW! Primary Ebony Embossing powder and heat set with WOW! Dual Speed Heat Gun.

Quick & simple bold card: finishing the card off
Foam mount the bold card panel onto a white card base for added interest. Next, stamp an additional secondary stamp from the Sincere Thanks stamp in Deck The Halls ink and foam mount this underneath the heat embossed sentiment.

Lastly, to finish this card off, add a few sequins from the new Pierre sequin mix which has a lovely mixture of fresh coloured sequins.
