Impression Obsession November Team Favorites

The IO Team is back today with a little hop to share our favorite cards from this month's release, so here's mine! If you're already hopping and you came from the Impression Obsession Blog you are in the correct place. If not, head there for the start of the hop so you don't miss anything!


I've got a couple of random stamps in my release this month... I have a small collection of large vintage kimono stamps, and I wanted to have at least one in my line - this outline is from a public domain drawing from 1677, and I filled it in with some of my own line art. Coloring was done with Copics, and I added some highlights with gold acrylic paint.


The background marbling stamp is one you may recognize from one of my clear sets, now discontinued. Instead of a layered set, it's back now slightly larger and in cling rubber. I will get a video done soon, but here you can see some samples of different effects done with the stamp - you can stamp it directly, stamp onto a misted panel, or mist the inked stamp before stamping. You can even layer more than one effect to get that classic depth that's characteristic of marble.  Fun, huh?

  6. That kimono stamp is perfect for my niece's birthday party card. Her theme is Japanese this year. She loves celebrating different cultures and that stamp would be perfect for it.
