Impression Obsession Favorites - MOM

Welcome to the Impression Obsession April 2021 Release Team Favorites Hop!

The Impression Obsession Designers are sharing our favorite projects from this month’s release!

If you came from amazingly talented Vicki Garrett's blog you are in the correct place. If not head over to the Impression Obsession blog for the start of the hop.

I was so drawn to this beautiful Ornate Flourish!  It's a very large image which makes for an impactful background.  I heat embossed the flourish and simply added the MOM Die Cut.  



 We will be giving away THREE Impression Obsession Grab Bags - so the more you comment through our Favorites Hop the more chances to win! Comments will be open until Monday, April 19th  at midnight CT. All winners will be announced on Tuesday, April 20th on the Impression Obsession Blog.
Next on the hop is the fabulously talented Anna Wight's blog.  

I have another little bonus this week!  I play in a Watercolor Challenge on Wednesdays at SCS and we are painting butterflies or dragonflies with the help of a tutorial.  This took me all day to finish.  Ugh.  I have my story listed at SCS but I won't bore you with the details here.  I didn't use a butterfly stamp for this but it certainly would be easier if I had!  IO has a huge selection of beautiful butterfly art and it can be found HERE. The sentiment is New Day.  My color choices were inspired by this week's Art Nudge #56.



Thanks so very much for stopping by!  I hope you are inspired by this month's team favorites!  All of the new products can be found HERE.

  2. Thank you so much Maria! Yes, I used a MISTI! I use a MISTI for pretty much every card I make. Large stamps can be tricky, but they are much easier to use with a MISTI. :) Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!

  15. Your card is gorgeous! I love the colour of blue you chose for the background flourish! I also like the contrast between the swoops and curlicues of the flourish and the strong straight lines of the word Mom. Thanks for sharing!
