Impression Obsession Sneak Peeks - Day 3
The Impression Obsession team is showcasing new images for the Fall/Winter season! You can visit the I.O. Blog
each day this week for links to the previews. Be sure to leave a
comment on the I.O. Blog and each designer's posts throughout the week for a chance to
win a $25 gift certificate daily from Impression Obsession!
In this collection, I have several stamps around the theme of houses and moving - probably because we were hoping to move at the time I was designing...
Since I was working on my Watercolor Powders tutorial and catalog samples at the same time, quite a few of my catalog samples feature techniques shown in the video. When I'm under pressure and my desk is a mess, I tend to work with what's out. Here's one card that you might recognize from the video -- the focal image is called Collage Houses and the pieces of those houses are also available in a funky little mix-and-match clear set!
One more card with the new house stamps - thought this one would be cute for a new neighbor or housewarming party. The background was sprayed using a stencil - the chevron lines go all the way across the stencil leaving long openings, so I tucked my card through the stencil to use only a few lines.
I used my MISTI to do the repeat stamping of the sentiment - so easy to line up!
Stamps I used: Welcome, Key Background

I just invested in some Color Burst powders & your card has me ready to get them out & play! Great coloring job. The simplicity of the 2nd card is wonderful. Love it!
ReplyDeleteCool cards, Dina. I love the effect of your funky black and white houses against that beautiful bold background. Also really like your second card with its fabulous inky background and the gorgeous ribbon: the perfect compliments to the great key background stamp!
