Impression Obsession January Red Rubber Kit

The design team is sharing projects today using this month's stamp kit from Impression Obsession! Turning the corner into the new year, this kit features some beautiful roses and floral wreaths that will be perfect for Valentines Day (and more, of course)!


I really had fun making this card, so I'll share it today! I started with a base of watercolor paper. The color was added with a 'polished stone' technique, adding rubbing alcohol and then a few drops of alcohol ink to a paper towel and then pouncing the color around the panel until I had the effect I wanted. I stamped the wreath image and then left the stamp in place in my MISTI. I added color using acrylic paint pens, and then restamped the image over the paint. I love how the white paint really pops against the background!

    Love the pretty, bold BG with the soft coloring of the wreath roses. So very pretty! And a great sentiment to compliment the image.
