Impression Obsession CHA sneak peek!
This card uses my absolute favorites from this new release!! The Cabbage Roses are so fun to color - this was actually one of my 'practice' pieces for my new Touch Twin markers. And of course, I love any images of cute things in tea cups!
For the background panel, I inked up Cover-a-Card Damask (my other new favorite) with Vermillion ink, then spritzed the stamp with 90% alcohol before stamping to glossy cardstock, and sponged with tissue until dry. I tied two colors of ribbon together with my Bow-Easy, and heated the bow lightly with my heat tool.

ReplyDeleteThose cabbage roses in the teacup are gorgeous. I think the damask cover a card is my favorite too. The colors you chose go so well together. I've never heard of a bow easy until this contest. It's been mentioned a few times this week.
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is a beauty!! I am intrigued by your background technique with the alcohol. Really like the two ribbons tied together, too. Well, I REALLY like everything about this card. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThat is an absolutely beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! Love the bold color! Thank you for sharing your tip about spraying your background stamp with alcohol, it looks really good. Your coloring of the cabbage roses is really pretty. I love the stippling to get the glow and shadow behind the roses and teacup. Fabulous! Thank you for sharing.
