IO Summer Release Celebration Day 2 & a Giveaway

(Affiliate links used when possible which means when you click a link and order from my link I receive a small commission without any additional cost added to you.  Thanks so much!)

Hi and welcome to day two of the Impression Obsession Summer Release Celebration!  

For my first summery card, I featured the darling Beach Bunny and High Tide.

For my next card, I am featuring the amazing Hollyhocks stamp.  This stamp is huge and fabulous!  I did a little spotlighting with this one.  I inked up the stamp and spritzed it with water before stamping on cardstock.  Next, I stamped on another piece of cardstock but this time I did not spritz with water.  I cut out three little squares of flowers for a bit of a spotlight.  Then I added So Sorry.  The Hollyhocks are stunning on a card front but I think it would also be amazing on a mixed media canvas!

This card was inspired by a couple of challenges at Splitcoaststampers.


A celebration is the most fun when there are prizes so here are the details! The Impression Obsession Summer Stamp Release Celebration starts today! Each day (April 8th - 10th ) you can find a list of participants on the Impression Obsession Blog at 6AM CST. Every single blog will have a $25 gift certificate to give away for the event - so the more you comment through our Release Celebration the more chances to win!
