Zenspirations Blog Hop!

The Impression Obsession team is hosting a blog hop today to share a new line of stamps with you called Zenspirations - these are fun clear sets by artist Joanne Fink (you may have seen her artwork on Hallmark cards or elsewhere - she has a very recognizable style - you can see more of her artwork HERE).

I used the set called Espresso Yourself to create a shaker card, using one of I.O.'s Shake-It Pouches (this is the large circle). The image inside is colored with Prismacolor Pencils and I used Earth Ultrafine Flower Soft and some coffee grounds for my filler. I used a brown Blo-Pen for a quick spritz of speckles across the card.
Here's how I created the word border around my circle opening - one fun thing about clear stamps is that they are flexible, and can be bent around a shape. The two long word borders fit perfectly around the circle I had cut. I used a Coluzzle circle template to align the borders the way I wanted them before stamping.


Thanks for joining us on our hop today!
