Hello friends!!!
Welcome to another fun Impression Obsession Challenge, Christmas is just around the corner and sometimes we need quick and easy Christmas cards, well, that is our challenge this time "Sending Hugs"

All the details can be found at the Impression Obsession  Blog.
A random challenge card will be selected to be showcased on the IO blog AND you can enter to win a $25 gift certificate to IO just by playing! (IO stamps need to be used).

This is the card I made for you today.
I have to confess I had a totally different idea for this project, but I really love how this turned out.

Stamps used on this project:

Details:
Stamp Three Little Birds image on white cardstock in Jet Black Ink, color image with alcohol markers (Spectrum Noir Illustrators used here). Fussy cut image, add little dots of White gel pen. 
Add Rhubarb Crumble Nuvo Drops to birds' tales.

Create the background blending Distress Oxides Inks (Worn Lipstick, Peeled Paint, Fossilized Amber) on watercolor paper.
Stamp Mandala in Goldenrod Ink, then stamp Leaf image in Lime Ink.

Adhere panel to white card base.
Add Dandelion Yellow, Crushed Grape and Simple White Gloss Nuvo drops to embellish the card.
Adhere birds to card with foam tape.


Here you can see the stamped background much better.



Hope you like it!
