Impression Obsession Old is New

Hello friends!

Sometimes we get so busy with new released stamps that we forget about our old favorites. The Impression Obsession team has set aside a couple days a month to share some new projects using some great older stamps. You can see the list of today’s participants on the Impression Obsession blog

Today, I have a flower card for you.

The flower image I used is Zinnia, the background image is Wide Watercolor Stripe, this is one of my favorite background stamps!

Position you Zinnia stamp on your MISTI and stamp it on white cardstock in Jet Black Ink, color image with markers., then add Clear Sparkle Pen to all shimmer.

Die-cut image with Checkered Frames Die (used the second largest), then blend Bubblegum Ink around the edges.

Die-cut and extra Checkered Frame in Pink Cardstock, glue it with the previous one to create a thicker frame.

Create a white card base 5.5"x 5.5", stamp Wide Watercolor Stripe in Bubblegum Ink.

Adhere image and frame.

Die-cut Hello word in same pink cardstock (x3), glue them together and add them to card.

Finally add White Nuvo drops to embellish.

Summer Bouquet!

Hello friends!!

Hope you all are having a fantastic day!

It's Friday and I hope you have plans for a great weekend!

Flowers are here as well, and I love them!

I bought several kinds this year and some are still up and some are gone, lol, got lots of seeds because I have plans to remodel my garden area and get just flowers, sadly I didn't do anything there because of "things happen", but hopefully I can get things clean and done before Fall is over, and the weather is not too bad.

Anyways, talking about flowers, don't you love this gorgeous image just release?!

This is "Summer Bouquet" and perfect for coloring if you like to do so or just great done using embossing powders.
