Today is the third and final day of a three day Summer release celebration for Impression Obsession, and I hope you have enjoyed the inspiration! All of the new images you have seen on IO designer celebration posts April 28th - May 1st are available now on the Impression Obsession website.
The card I made for today features Summer Road Trip (CL944). I stamped several images from the set in a permanent black ink and did a smooshed watercolor background using various colors of dye based inks. I added a frame from the All-in-one-Frames Rectangles 2 die set (DIE291-WW), and one from the Checkerboard Frames die set (DIE805-YY).
Find all the details on this release on the Impression Obsession Blog.
Visit the Impression Obsession site and check out all of the new images. I will be giving away one $25 gift certificate, drawn at random from comments left on my celebration posts (there will be three posts - a comment on all three posts means you will have three chances to win the gift certificate!) Comments will remain open on my blog posts until Sunday May 5th. The winner of my $25 gift certificate will be announced on the Impression Obsession blog on Monday, May 6th.
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!
Oh the memories this card brought up. My folks had one of those station wagons.

Totally Retro! Fun coloring technique, but the coolest thing to me is that you used multiple stamps to create your card. GREAT way to think outside the individual images and turn a stamp set into a background set.
