Today is the second day of a two day Fall/Winter Die Release Celebration for Impression Obsession, and I hope you enjoy the inspiration! All of the new products you see on our celebration posts yesterday and today are available now on the Impression Obsession website. The card I made for today’s post features another one of my favorite dies from the release, Santa Head.
The Santa Head set comes with several sizes of beards you can use to create Santa. Use one, or several layers, to create your Santa! I die cut all of the pieces I wanted to use from heavy white 110lb cardstock and colored the shapes with markers. This is much faster, and provides a bit more control over colors than die cutting all of the shapes from various colors of card stock. I assembled my colored layers, added a sparkling pom-pom, touch of holly and a little red gem to his hat, a few white highlights here and there, and adhered him to my card. Super cute, Ho Ho Ho!
Find all the details on this amazing release on the Impression Obsession Blog.
Let me know what you think of my card! I will be giving away one $10 Impression Obsession gift certificate, drawn at random from comments left on my Fall/Winter Die Celebration posts (there are two posts - a comment on both posts means you will have two chances to win the gift certificate!) Comments will remain open until Noon Pacific on Saturday September 29th. The winner will be announced on my blog and the Impression Obsession blog on Monday, October 1st.
For a wonderful dose of inspiration, pop on over to the Impression Obsession Blog for a complete list of designers participating in this event. Enjoy the inspiration!

Sooo cute! Love that cute Santa!

Super cute Santa!!! I like coloring my die cuts too instead of having to cut from a bunch of different colors of cardstock. So much easier!
