(In case you didn't know, I have my own line of stamps at Impression Obsession, and I'm thrilled to be adding more of my original stamps to the collection. You can see all my designs HERE!)


I'm really thrilled with how this Bethlehem sillhouette stamp turned out, and found it very versatile for a clean and simple card design! I'll plan on sharing a video when I have the chance to show how I made these backgrounds - they require several impressions and gradations using the IO hybrid inks and the MISTI.


I used cool colors in this version, and then cut the panel in 4 to layer onto matboard squares.


On this card, I layered a sentiment by Alesa Baker over the finished background - it's such a bold and stunning combination!

IO Products I used:  Bethlehem, Peace, Jesus is the Reason (Alesa Baker); All-in-One Frames - Squares
