Impression Obsession Challenge

 

 

Hey friends!  Welcome to a new challenge from Impression Obsession.  It's that time of year.  Christmas in July! Woot!!!!  150 days until Christmas!!!!  Can you believe that!!!! YAY!  I already have some gifts purchased with Toys R Us closing!  Saved some BIG BUCKAROONIES!!!! 

 

Anyway, I digress.... I created my card using the tiny candy cane from the Nutcracker Suite CL782 in clear embossing ink and powder.  I colored my watercolor paper up with Candied Apple and Fired Brick distress inks.  I had watched a you tube that Canson watercolor paper was great for Distress inks, I'm gonna have to disagree here.  BUT.... away I went.  I then stamped the Curtsey silhouette E13710 in clear embossing ink and black embossing powder over the top.  The sentiment Being Naughty D17146 was stamped onto black cardstock and white embossing powder was used.



 



 

Check out the blog for all those playing along.  In fact, come play with us! :)

 

Here's a handy list to help you out with enjoying all the creations!

Impression Obsession Fall/Winter release day 4

Welcome to the Impression Obsession 2018 Fall/Winter Stamps Release Hop!

We have some beautiful new stamps to share AND Gift Certificates to give away!

I just can't get enough of this Pinecones cover a card.  LOVE it so much!  Here I stamped it in versamark again and used Copper pearl ex powders over the top, mounted it on copper shimmer paper and stamped the sentiment  Gathering with Friends right over the top.

I also can't get enough of the resurgence of Pearl ex powders apparently LOL  Here I swiped the versamark pad over the entire piece of black cardstock, added to different colors and  then took the two stamp sets, Sled Silhouette and Starry sky, and inked them in versamark ink and stamped directly onto the powder covered cardstock removing the powder, cleaned the stamps and reinked and stamped again.  I am a heavy handed adder of stuff so it took 2 sets! :)

The Blog Hop will be posted on the Impression Obsession Blog at 6am EST July 16th – July 19th.

IO Summer Release Hop final day

Welcome to the Impression Obsession 2018 Summer Release Hop!

If you've come from Karen's blog, you are in the right place. If not head the the Impression Obsession blog for the start of the hop

I have created THREE cards for you today!  The first one is in celebration of our graduating daughters, nieces, etc..... I used a daisy embossing folder to add texture and the idea of freedom.  I stamped the sentiment Potential D17246 in versamark and then used Copper embossing powder and heat it.  I used some copper paper and die cut the girl grad from the die set called Grads Jumping DIE295-R.  I actually die cut the image from the center of the copper paper as it was going to be hidden by the white panel.  :)

My second card I created SO fast.  I used my Stampin Up water color wonder crayons, you can use the different crayon/distress/ supplies, and simply swiped the red then blue on my water color panel then used my water color pen and blended them out.  I dried the panel with my heat gun and then used the Flag Girl Silhouette E13688.  I stamped it in the IO Hybrid black ink using my MISTI.  I stamped it several times as watercolor paper likes to absorb ink.

My last card is just a fun card to celebrate Summer!  Summer should ALWAYS be DRAMA FREE!!!!!  SO, I created a fun sunny background using designer paper and sequins, die cut out some fence panels using the Lg. Fence DIE149-U , Cute Sign E7970 and No Drama B7947.

Impression Obsession Spring Hop day 5

Welcome to the Impression Obsession 2018 Spring Release Hop!

We have some beautiful new stamps to share AND Gift Certificates to give away!...

I began this card creation by playing with my Yupo paper.  I had purchased it after seeing a video by Jennifer McGuire several months ago, lost it, forgot about it, remembered about it and searched high and low.  FOUND IT.... well, I have seen it said that you "can't heat emboss on Yupo paper".... well me being me.... I challenged that rule.  I WON!  Now, mind you that you have to have your heat gun already super hot, and move it CONSTANTLY!!!!!!  I was able to heat emboss the CC283 Layered Roses that I stamped in IO Hybrid ink with clear embossing powder.  The ink stayed wet plenty long enough to get the powder on due to the slick surface.  I then decided HA! I'll use my scrap with the CC 265 X and O and emboss it also!  I added a piece of black ribbon to break up all the read, and then stamped the D13644 Thinking Silhouette in IO Hybrid and embossed it also.  I took some powders and made a night sky.  some small gems for stars and some red wire floss was circled around the piece and topped with a bow.
