Impression Obsession Spring Die Release Day 2

Just wanted to make sure you'd all seen the new die release over at Impression Obsession - there are some really fun new spring designs to choose from! Go take a peek - I'll wait!

In addition to the adorable animals in this release, there are some stunning Western designs! They were really fun to pair up with the Western collection I have in my stamp line - I've used a couple here, and I'll link some more below.

DIE781-YY Western Couple
DIE814 Pinked Stitched Sentiment Banner
B13154 Hello Darlin

I had this watercolored background in my stash - it was a perfect pairing with the silhouette die - a quick and simple card.

DIE782-YY Desert Scene
DIE797-YY Crazy Stitched Set
B13175 Thank You Kindly

This card was a little more involved, but the inlay technique isn't difficult - I have a tutorial here, and maybe since I'll have a quiet house this week I can work on a short video specific to this set! You can find the basic technique HERE.

Just for fun, here are a few other favorites from my Western collection - my Dad loved old Western movies, and this collection just makes me smile.

D13150 Courage Is
L13144 Bandana
D13165 Rodeo Silhouette

    BOTH of your cards are FABULOUS, Dina! LOVE the water colored sky on your first & the sentiment goes SO WELL with it! Your second card looks GREAT with the technique you used! LOVE the patterned paper on this & your lasso! I'm with your dad on Westerns! I could watch them ALL DAY & not get tired of them! THOSE were the great days of TV/Movies! ;)

    The variety in this release is so cool. Love these cowboys - a genre for a whole different audience, totally different from the cute bunnies. Everything in this release is great! The yellow - red - brown tones on your card are gorgeous.

    These dies are so exciting to me being from Oklahoma. Anything southwest, western, and landscape are my favorites and they are hard to find. I think I'll be spending some money. As always, anything Dina does sparks inspiration. The colors are great.
