Impression Obsession Fall/Winter Dies - Day 2

Welcome to the Impression Obsession Team Fall/Winter Die hop! We have some beautiful new dies to share with you, and prizes too. Keep reading to find out how you could win a $25 gift certificate and get a few dies of your own! We'll have samples to share tomorrow too, so please check back for more chances to win!


I actually made this background months ago when we were showing off my new succulent stamps, but it never made it onto a card - it was a perfect fit with Alesa Baker's new succulent set, which also has dies to match! The background is embossed with white powder, and I sure don't remember what I used to color it. 


I used Chameleon pens and Color Tops to color the image - I'm loving this new addition to the Chameleon line, and I'll have more info about them later! I love that teacup, and I'm thrilled to have a die to go with it, and the mix-and-match succulents are so sweet.


Stamps and dies I used:  Cup of Sweet Succulents clear set, Cup of Sweet Succulents die set, CAC Succulents

  5. Your background is TRULY BEAUTIFUL, Dina! And your tea cup & succulents look FABULOUS with this! I'm also looking forward to hearing about the new Color Tops you've mentioned. The succulents don't look like you used colored pencils on them. They're FLAWLESS & so is the TEA CUP! ;)

  15. At first glance I thought this was a 4 panel window die and then I realized it is tiling with embossed frame. Cool beans! This is making me think about using some of the IO 6 x 6 stamps to make large tiles with....
