Impression Obsession CHA sneak peek

The Impression Obsession team is showcasing some new images being introduced this week at CHA! You can visit the I.O. Blog each day this week for links to the previews. Be sure to leave a comment on each designer's posts throughout the week for a chance to win a gift certificate to I.O!

Here's a favorite from Alesa Baker's new artwork - I love her style! This image is colored with Prismacolor pencils. The bucket was stamped a second time and shaped. It's popped up with foam tape, and I tucked some Autumn Mix Flower Soft in the top. I used inkpads to color my background panel using a direct-to-paper technique, and the card base is textured cardstock stamped with Cover-a-Card Flourishes. The sentiment is from last year's Fall release and can be found here.

More previews tomorrow - stay tuned!

Thanks for stopping by!
