New Fall/Winter Stamps from IO - Day 3

The Impression Obsession team is showcasing new images that are available NOW for the Fall/Winter season! You can visit the I.O. Blog each day this week for links to the previews and ALL the challenge details. Be sure to leave a comment on our designers' posts throughout the week for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate DAILY from Impression Obsession!


This Lures image is watercolored on Canva-Paper - I love the texture of this paper, and it's great for all kinds of wet media. 



A good chunk of my release this time is dedicated to outdoor activities, and creating this fishing collection was really fun. My grandparents spent much of their time on the ocean, and the fisherman in this clear set (coming soon - preorder now!) is actually my grandfather. 


Serene Scene clear set
(These scenes can be layered, or used independently - stamped in soft ink, they're beautiful backgrounds for sentiments too.)




We just moved to the Truman Lake MO area, so I anticipate using these deer and fishing stamps quite a bit! This second card was quick and sample - the background is a sheet of cardstock that I cleaned my brayer on while gel printing. I sketched in the border by hand.



 Stamps I used: Lures, You're A Catch, Fishing Line, Few Lines

  12. The new layered "scene" stamps are amazing, as are your beautiful cards. I like the clean, jaunty colour scheme of the first with its popped-up images, and love the brayered background of your second card - perfect for the new fishing line stamps!
