Impression Obsession - March Team Favorites

The IO Team is back today to share a favorite card from this month's release, but before I share mine, I wanted to make sure you know about IO's biggest sale ever! Some exclusions may apply, but for the most part all in-stock items are 40% off - this even includes the $1 section. Can't beat a set of cute clear stamps for 60 cents!! 

On to the favorite projects - here's mine, and you can head over to the Impression Obsession Blog for the rest of the links so you don't miss anything. All the newest releases can be found HERE.

I'm going back to our Birthday Hugs Bundle because this one was fun to make! I stamped the balloons in Beige ink and used watercolors to color each one. I did one color at a time, making sure they were dry before painting an overlapping color. It did take a little braining to decide which ones were in front of others, but I think I worked it out. I added a little splattering to add texture and break up the solids and white areas. New dies and paper were used as well! If you'd like to try this concept, check out Jennie's tutorial on Coloring Transparent Objects.
