The Perfect Reason Stamp of Approval Blog Hop Day 3

Hi everyone and welcome to day 3 of the Stamp of Approval blog hop for the release of the brand new
 The Perfect Reason Collection!
Goes on sale tomorrow, Febuary 8th!!



By now you've hopefully had a chance to follow along on day 1 and day 2 of the blog hop and have had a good look at some fabulous eye candy by our designers  using this gorgeous new 
Stamp of Approval Collection.

Catherine Pooler  and her designers have really outdone themselves creating this very unique collection of stamps and dies that is so appropriately named The Perfect Reason.  We like to think every reason is The Perfect Reason to make a card, right?   Well this box is loaded with all the inspiration you'll need including 4 stamp sets, 3 die sets and a stencil that were specifically created to work together and compliment each other perfectly.  You'll also receive a PDF Project Guide with tons of card inspiration from the Stamp of Approval designers.  This Project Guide provides photos and step by step instructions on how to make some of the beautiful cards you've seen on the hop and more!


Just a reminder:   these boxes sell out really quick so you need to make sure you're on the email list <----HERE!  Catherine will email you tomorrow morning,  as soon as the collection goes on sale.  The items in this box won't be available for individual purchase for many months so this will be your only opportunity to get them early and I wouldn't want you to miss out on all of this fun!

Here are a few cards I made using this wonderful collection.

First up, this gorgeous peacock from the Paisley Peacock stamp and die set.  Have you ever seen anything like it?  This stamp set is so fun!  You can give him a short tail or do like I did here and stamp a fun pattern full of color using inks from  Catherine Pooler Designs.    I also added my favorite sentiment in this collection "I don't need a reason"  from The Perfect Reason stamp set. Along the side of this card I colored and embossed a strip of paper using the Mod Squared Stencil and Something Borrowed ink from Catherine Pooler Designs.

Using The Perfect Reason stamp and die sets I made the next card by creating a vine of those pretty little bell flowers.  These flowers are so whimsical and I've seen them used many different ways just in this blog hop.  This large sentiment is from the You Did It stamp set.  I also stamped a black diamond border stamp up the side using the Everyday Mod stamp set.

Here's a better look at that pretty diamond Everyday Mod border stamp stamped in Tutti Frutti ink from Catherine Pooler Designs.  I used a couple more flowers from The Perfect Reason floral stamp set and coordinating dies to make a pretty bouquet.

For my last card I created a background out of a small border stamp from the Everyday Mod stamp set.  This stamp has three circles but stamps so nicely across a card front.  It's easy to line up and really makes a lovely pattern.  Here I went with a gradient color pattern using Tiara, Tiki Torch, Tutti Frutti and Rockin Red inks by Catherine Pooler Designs.  The adorable little sentiment is from the You Did It stamp set and I topped it off with some cute tiny flowers from  The Perfect Reason stamp set.

OK, you know the drill!
