Impression Obsession Die Cut Obsession With March Release Dies

Hello friends,  Today we are using our Impression Obsession dies on our cards.  I am also using a couple of the new dies from the March Release.
I already know that I will be using these dies a lot.  That tag!  And the whiskey barrel is so fun!  Just think of all the fun ideas for filling it for different occasions and celebrations!

IO Stamps/Dies Links:


This is how I made my card:
  •  On a white A2 card front I covered it with patterned papers and some silk ribbon.
  • I stamped the Kitty With Heart stamp onto card stock, colored it with Polychromos colored pencils, then fussy-cut it and set it aside.
  • On bristol card stock, I die cut the flower from the Flowers & Leaves die set.  I used distress inks with my brush applicators to 'paint' the flower and leaves, then set them aside.
  • From kraft card stock, I cut the Whiskey Barrel Planter, and used brush ink applicators to add ink for shading.
  • From kraft card stock, I cut the Stitched Die Tag.  I added the Barrel, flower, and kitty to the tag, ran some silk ribbon through the hole, and a button with a string bow, and attached it to the card front with foam tape.
  • On kraft card stock, I stamped the Sending Cheer verse onto the panel cut from the Stitched Die Tag set.  I attached this to the card front, under the tag.
I had lots of fun creating this card with the cute little kitty and fabulous IO dies.  I hope you get a chance to play with some of your dies and/or stamps this week. 
 
Thanks for stopping by today.

Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Boo Halloween Cat Card

 

It's the third Saturday of the month, and time for the Mid-way inspiration designs for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge.  I have another halloween cat card for you today.
 
I chose the Fancy Cat Die for the main image.  This set of two cat dies is versatile, and fits any occasion.  I added the hat and treat bag from a couple of older PB stamps in my stash.  Another card from one of my previous blog posts using this cat die set is HERE.
 
 

I hope you will join us at the Penny Black Saturday Challenge.  I look forward to seeing your projects.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I really enjoy your visits and kind comments.

Blessings,

Cat's Outta The Bag Card With Arteza Everblend Markers

Happy 'hump day!"  I have a card today, featuring some of the new Impression Obsession stamps from the Spring release.
Impression Obsession stamp links:
WP1012 Farm Fresh clear set 

I started with a kraft colored A2 card, and stamped the Shiplap Cover-A-Card  in brown ink. 

I stamped the elements from the Farm Fresh clear set  set onto white bristol card, and colored them with Arteza Everblend alcohol markers. I fussy-cut the colored pieces, and attached them to the card front.

For the verse, I used the same Farm Fresh clear set, and stamped it onto a white scrap, distressed, and added it with foam tape for added dimension.

Before I get to the inside of the card, meet Bella, my cat, who inspired my card today.  
She's always getting into mischief, just like this sweet little kitty coming out of the bag!  
This is her 'I don't know what happened here innocent look' after we found the kitchen sponge shredded to pieces all over the dining room floor!
 

Inside:
I stamped the cat from the Farm Fresh clear set and the verse and paw prints from the Silhouette Kitties set.  I drew a frame around the verse with a fineliner Arteza marker.


Enjoy the rest of your week!  I'll be back tomorrow for Impression Obsession's new challenge, Tag You're It!

Cat Hair Makes It A Home

We are having an exquisite Sunday here in upstate New York.  It's about 77 degrees right now, with oodles of sunshine, and a little breeze.  Great afternoon for blogging outdoors on my garden deck, to the melodies of our birds and beauty of my colorful garden blooms.  So, here is my card for today....
Links to stamps (all Impression-Obsession):
Silhouette Kitties WP981
Note Card E20772

I covered a white A2 card with patterned paper from my stash.  I stamped the Note Card with VersaMark nocturne ink, colored the bow with Copic markers.  I partially stamped one of the Silhouette Kitties inside the Note Card frame, then fussy cut the image, cutting the bow part twice. 


I added the image to the card front with foam tape for dimension.  I colored and cut the bow, and added it to the image with more foam tape.

I white-embossed the tiny paw prints along the bottom.

INSIDE:
That's all folks!  I hope you enjoy my card.  These Silhoutte Kitties are the perfect stamp set for all cat-lovers!  They stamp clearly and they're just adorable, with sentiments and paw prints included in the set!

Thanks for visiting today.  Be sure to stop back tomorrow for my project for Impression-Obsession's Die Cut Obsession day, especially if you like birds!

Blessings,
