Impression Obsession DT Challenge: Christmas in July!
The Impression Obsession girls challenged each other to post Christmas cards this week - the timing is perfect as we all have been working with the new Fall and Winter releases that will be revealed at CHA in a few weeks! So get ready for some sneak peeks!
My card uses one of my favorite images from this new release, by Leigh Hannan. I have been loving her fun and funky style more and more, especially with my new markers! I used vintage earthy colors, beginning with Neopiko markers and shading with Prismacolor pencils.
Speaking of CHA releases, have you seen Shirley's posts on the I.O. blog about the new Mega Mount and Cover-a-Card background stamps? If you've ever been frustrated by background stamps that don't reach the edges of your card panels or that don't give a complete impression, you'll definitely want to know about these new products!
The other girls want you to see their cards too, so be sure to visit their blogs and leave them some love. Their links are to the left!
On to blog candy - the winner of the Night Pier set is........ Sandra @ Magnolia & Ivy! Congratulations Sandra - be sure to email me with your mailing address!
And this is the new set up for grabs - I know you've seen these stamps around:
I'll draw and announce the winner at this same time next week! Leave a comment under this post for a chance to win!
Love it!
