What happens when 2 great companies swap products and then have 13 of their designers play with them?
Well, it's a super lotta fun, that's for sure!
Today we are collaborating with Catherine Pooler to bring you a great blog hop filled with jaw-dropping inspiration featuring their amazing inks and our amazing stamps, dies and stencils, and of course prizes too.
Catherine and I have been friends for a number of years, she's one of my favorite crafty peeps EVER and I'm pretty sure she'll tell you the same about me. We have traveled together, drank wine together...a lot of wine! haha! and we've designed some pretty cool products together.
If you are new to either one of our companies, we are excited to meet you and show you some of our stuff. You'll get the chance to meet some of our designers and I just know you are going to love them!
My designers were absolutely thrilled to get the chance to play with Catherine Pooler inks.
They are pretty, they are juicy, they stamp so crisply and are super versatile so you can use them in lots of ways. And she has a boatload of colors to delight you!
Did I mention there are prizes?
We are both offering $30 shopping sprees to our shops! Can I get a Woot Woot for that?
Visit the Catherine Pooler hop stop to get details on how to get your chance to win with them.
Plus as an extra bonus, we are releasing one of our new dies early! The official release starts on Monday but we have put the Birthday Fri-Die in the shop today. You will see lots of products using it in the hop and we didn't want to make you wait.
I'm sure you're wondering how can you get your chance to win our prize here?

ReplyDeleteThis has been an awesome hop. I've enjoyed seeing so many different cards using similar stamps, stencils, dies and colors. That jacks stencil may be a must have for me. Can't wait to see the new release.
ReplyDeleteI was there :) So grateful to have met you, Michele. You continue to be an inspiration to me. <3
ReplyDeleteWhat a great hop! Thank you so much!

ReplyDeleteMarisela Delgado said: Yay, Michele! You rock star! So excited for the collaboration! mariandmonsterd@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteMaria Russell's Hello Friend is my favorite project. No favorite color, but love rainbow colors on cards.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this terrific, fun blog hop! So many awesome designs, stamps, dies and colors - great creations by all!
ReplyDeleteHard to pick a favorite project, so I'm picking the ones that use products I own, including Shenanigans sentiments and Jacks (I have the stencil and Fri-dies). Any of the bright colors are great, but Aquas always make me smile.
ReplyDeleteMarisela Delgado said: Oops! Forgot to follow instructions! haha My favorite color forever and ever is PURPLE! I love PURPLE! I love the Jack's background, but Vicki's ballerina is my favorite! mariandmonsterd@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteCasual Fridays was one of my very first stamps, way back in 2008! I love the card Nanette made with the jacks. Jacks were by passion when I was about 9-10 years old. Made my heart happy! Two great companies and I thank you for all the wonderful products.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great blog hop. So many talented designers using these fabulous stamps and inks.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun blog hop! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite color is purple. I don't know if I can pick my favorite card because they are all awesome. If I had to pick one, maybe I would pick Susan Powell's Happy Birthday card. It's so colorful and cheerful. Plus, I need to buy that stencil and the die.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great hop. Love all of the wonderful ideas.
ReplyDeleteThis was a great hop! Thanks Michele!
ReplyDelete2 wonderful companies together. It's lovely to see the collaboration.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite colour is any shade of red and i just love the cards with the balloons in the clouds, although it was hard to choose!!
Great hop. Thanks
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun hop! I love seeing companies collaborate together. Great new sneak to a new release too!
ReplyDeleteSo great to see companies supporting one another!
ReplyDeleteJust discover your company Michele...Thanks Catherine Pooler! Loved all the cards and inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThis was a fun blog hop! I really loved the slim-line balloon card by Maria. My favorite color is teal.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun hop, I am off to see what everyone created!
ReplyDeleteAwesome coloberative blog hop, I especially loved Maria Russel's beautiful Balloons card!!!! My favorite color is ROYAL BLUE!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this fun collaboration hop. My favourite color is All that Jazz. My favourite card is Michelle W, where she ink blended and used peeking pups.
ReplyDeleteI think it is great when two creative people pool their creative juices. My favorite card, though it is really hard to choose, would be Jen Carter's use of the Jacks Stencil with the CP balloons. Love All That Jazz.
ReplyDeleteFun hop from two of my favorite companies! I love the new die, but one of my fave cards was made using the Somebunny stamps - I just love that adorable bunny!
ReplyDeleteYou and Catherine Pooler are so amazing and both of y'all inspire me so much thanks for putting this hop together I had a great time getting lots of inspiration, my favorite color is purple or pastel purple and if I had to choose my favorite project in the hop it's hard to say everybody was amazing but if I had to choose I would say Chrissie Tobas and Karen Baker what both of these lady's did on their cards were spectacular
ReplyDeleteFun hop with great inspiration. How do you pick a favorite color? Kind of like a favorite child...Mint to Be of I have to today. I loved Maria Russell's balloon card.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite color is Be Mine, and my favorite card is the dancing girl by Vicki Dutcher. ... It's nice to see two great companies team up to support each other and to show off what your products can do. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGreat hop! So much talent and creativity - thanks for the inspiration. My favorite project is Allison's card with the rainbow happy birthday. Love the aqua shade of all that jazz.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great hop! I had 2 favorites! Vicki's ballerina was adorable! And I love Maria's balloon card (for some reason Wordpress never lets me comment, so I couldn't let her know how great her card is).
ReplyDeleteThis was a very fun hop. Thank you. I love stencils, and can't wait to see everything on Monday. I'm hoping to buy the jacks stencil for sure!
ReplyDeleteA great fun hop combining 2 great companies! Love the bright, happy colours from CP and the great stencils and stamps from CAS-aul Friday. My favourite colours are Suede Shoes an All That Jazz, but so difficult to choose. The team have created amazing cards and it so so hard to pick just one. I love the way Nanette has used ink blending in her clever designs and Maria's brilliant use of stenicls, stamps and inks! Thanks so much for all the inspiration! Take care! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm new to CAS-ual Fridays but I just signed up for your newsletter. Can't wait to get acquainted!
ReplyDeleteLove Suede Shoes. Blue is my
ReplyDeletefavorite color and the deepness
of this blue is great. Jen's
balloons are so colorful and
have a fun design. thanks
for pairing with Casual-friday.
It was a fantastic hop.
