Impression Obsession: February Release Day 1

Welcome to the Impression Obsession February 2021 release celebration! It’s Day 1 and I have some inspiration to share with you!

The card I’m sharing was made with the Wake Up Create and Palette and Paint stamps. I stamped the image and sentiment on watercolor paper and painted it with bright colors. This makes a pretty quick, cheerful card!

Impression Obsession: Old is New

Today is an “old is new” day for the Impression Obsession team, where we feature older products in the Impression Obsession catalog. We hope you're inspired! I created an Easter card using Garden Bunny and Easter Blessings. I colored the image with water based marker pigments. A quick and easy card, ready to send some spring greetings to someone special.

Girl Gnome and Flowers

Tonight I created a card with a couple of my Whipper Snapper Designs stamps, and thought I’d share the inspiration with you.

I used Potted Gnome Girl, and a sentiment from Everyday Sentiments cling mount set (it’s stamped inside the card) to create this cheerful card, with a whole lotta sparkle and shine! The image is stamped on a cotton paper, colored with Zig Clean Color water based brush markers, with Glitter Dust added for sparkle.

If you would like to see the creation process of this card, you’re in luck! I uploaded a video. 🙂

Masculine Card Inspiration

Thought I’d share a quick and easy masculine card idea, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

This card is made using stamps and dies from Impression Obsession, including Moose, Wooden Heart, Handmade Label, Journey sentiment, Grunge Cover-a-Card, and French Handwriting.

Please check out this video if you’re interested to see this card creation process!

 

Impression Obsession: January Favorite

Welcome to the Impression Obsession January 2021 stamp release Team Favorites blog hop! Today, designers are sharing our favorite projects from this month’s release. 

The card I’m sharing today was made with the Journey stamp, as well as the Bear die, and the Stitched Tag die set. I really love how this card turned out! I can see myself using this design a lot more in the future, especially for cards for fellas.

I created another card using the Journey stamp and am sharing a video showing the creation process of making the card!

Impression Obsession: January Release Day 2

Welcome to the Impression Obsession January 2021 release celebration! It’s Day 2 and I have more inspiration to share with you!

The card I’m sharing today was made with the Heart Medallion image, in addition to a long-time favorite of mine French Script and Rose Music. I used the Vintage Watercolor technique, which can be found in the techniques forum of SplitCoastStampers, to stamp and color the image. I created a video of the making process, which I hope you will enjoy! I have been sharing videos on YouTube regularly. If you’re not subscribed to my channel, I invite you to do so!
