Impression Obsession July Release Hop Day 1

It's time for a new release from Impression Obsession! All the new stamps are on the site now and you can check them out HERE - I'll wait! This month I added a few beachy slimline stamps to the mix - I hope you like them! Another fun thing about this release is that I have a new image code! You might not have noticed, but up until now all my stamp images have started with "13" - well, now they start with "22". That means I have over 1000 stamp images in the IO catalog (and that doesn't count sets and background stamps)!

We are kicking off the month with a 2-day hop, showing off the new releases. If you're already hopping and you came from Anna's blog, you are in the correct place. If not, head over to the Impression Obsession Blog for the start of the hop so you don't miss anything!

Instead of a slimline card, I used the lighthouse stamp for a regular A2 card. I started with yellow orange cardstock, masking a horizon line for the ocean and a circle for the setting sun. I brushed a little orange ink lightly against the edges of both masks, just enough for contrast. 


The birds are a separate stamp - looks like I got a little extra 'squish' when I stamped them! Oops! The sentiment is stamped on the largest sentiment banner die cut from the slimline set - I will link that up below.

Keep hopping for more inspiration - I hope you'll see more samples from my collections on the other blogs! Today and tomorrow (July 5-6) you can find a list of participants on the Impression Obsession Blog. We will be giving away THREE Impression Obsession $25 gift certificates for the event - so the more you comment through our Release Celebration the more chances to win!

All comments for each of the event days will be open until Monday July 12th at midnight CT. All winners will be announced on Tuesday July 13th on the Impression Obsession Blog.

Thank you for visiting me today! Hop along!
