Die Cut Obsession At Impression Obsession - Thanks A Latte



IO Dies/Stamps Links:

Today we are showcasing dies in our blogs.  For my card today, I used some of the new 2020 Fall/Winter Release dies and stamp set.  You can find the full release stamps and dies HERE.


I added some red card stock, and snowflake pattern paper to a Kraft card front.  I cut the Snowflake Frame  from white glitter paper, and added it, then embossed the verse and cut it with a circle die and added it to the snowflake center.

I cut the Coffee To Go from various card stocks and pp, and assembled, then added it with foam tape for added dimension.

Inside, I layered pp and card stock, stamped the verse from the Thank You Clear Set, and added a piece of the Snowflake Frame  die cut.
INSIDE

I am a coffee lover, so just had to have this die!  I'm sure I will use it often.  And that snowflake!  I think I will make some ornaments by adhering two die cuts with wrong sided together, with a string or cord between them.  Then the inside can be a verse, word, or even a small picture!  And it would also be a lovely tag!  

Anyways, that's my card for today.  I hope you are inspired by our new collection.  You can see the other participants' projects HERE.

Thanks so much for visiting.  I do enjoy your comments.

Blessings,

Impression Obsession Challenge - It's Snow Time




Hello lovely peeps!  Welcome to my blog, and my post for the Impression Obsession Challenge "It's Snow Time."  I have lots of snow on my card today....
IO Stamps/Dies Links:
Snowy Friends WP984 
Snowflakle Sparkle CL972 
Sm. Snowflake Set DIE100-F 
Hill Landscape Layers DIE343-T 

This was such a fun card to create!  I really enjoyed the process.  

I stamped the snowpeople images onto white card stock, and colored them with my Polychromos colored pencils.  For the snowbanks, I used distress inks in light blues and some paper 'hills' I made with the landscape dies.  I brushed the ink up from the hill masks to create the shadow areas.


I used the landscape dies to create a snow bank under the images, and added that to the panel, then attached the panel to a blue A2 card front.  A strip of red and white peppermint stripe pp edges the left side of the panel.  I added the verse with VersaFine Clair ink in Nocturne.

I added die cut snowflakes, then used glue to adhere glitter to the flakes and to other elements on the card front.

Inside:  I stamped some snow flakes in white pigment ink, and added a strip of the peppermint stripe paper.
That's it.  Easy and fun!  Don't you just love the cheery expressions on these snowpeeps?  And the fun wintertime elements.  

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I hope you will join our challenge this time.  You just might win a prize, you never know.  And who wouldn't love a $25 gift certificate this time of year!
