Spring Things - Day 2 IO April Release Hop

Welcome to day two of the Impression Obsession April Release!

Today is the second day of the Impression Obsession April Release. For my first card, I combined the Butterfly Garden Sayings and Let's Chat stamp sets. The flower images from the Let's Chat set were stamped randomly, and I used a sentiment from the Butterfly Garden Sayings stamp set. Additionally, I fussy cut a butterfly to complete the design.

Next, it's graduation time! 2023 was our last big graduation celebration, however, I had fun making this card for my stash.  The 3-step Layered Confetti stencil set makes this card especially fun. This stencil set will be used often for celebration cards! I also used the new easy-to-use Graduation Hats die set and the Graduation Sayings to complete the design.  

Lastly, I am featuring the new Script Celebrate! This word die will bring a smile to every recipient! I  used papers from the Basic Plaids pack and the Warm Watercolors.

Savor Every Moment - IO April Release Hop

Hello everyone!  Impression Obsession has a fantastic April Release!  I will jump right into it but check out the hop details below!

The sweet Baby Elephant is new this month. The elephant image is adorable, and I love the coordinating Baby Elephant die set.  I used the new Circles Stencil that fits the Petite Scalloped Circles for the background. My color choices were inspired by the colors and patterns in style when my children were babies. I used the dark plaid from the Basic Plaids Paper Pack for layering.

Still feeling in a circle mood, I made this card featuring the new Inverted Scalloped Circle and the Enjoy Life stamp set.  I used Classic Pooh Paper for the top layer, then created a scene inside the circle with the Clouds Grass Scene Stencil. Finally, I fussy cut the bird and placed it on the Bare Branch Die set to finish the scene.

Also, new this month are three different honeycomb stencils and a cute Sweet as Honey Stamp set. For this project, the Honeycomb stencil was used to create the background. Next, the Sweet as Honey Die set was used to die-cut the adorable honey jars, which were then placed on the Heart Shelf. 

The new stamps, stencils, and papers offer endless possibilities for crafting.

Hello, this week at the Free 4 All Challenge we are adding Five Dots!  These can be enamel dots, sequins, hand-drawn, stamped, gems, pearls, etc. I went old-school and used a hole punch. I distressed a piece of cardstock in a beautiful wine color and then die-cut the word Cheers and the wine from the Wine Glasses set. Finally, I hole-punched some dots to match the wine perfectly.

You can get the items I used today and much more at 40% off!  Shop HERE for all your stamping needs!

Pop the Bubbly for IO Team Favorites

 "Pop the Bubbly" is a fun sentiment and included in the Wine Sayings stamp set.  This is a sweet set for celebrations regardless of whether you celebrate with non-alcoholic or alcoholic beverages! We enjoyed delicious sparkling grape juice in fancy glasses last Christmas. 

 I love the delicious feeling I get when I watercolor so I had a lovely time coloring these glasses from the Wine Sayings set.

Posies & More - Day 2 of IO March Release & Hop

Today is day two of the March Impression Obsession Release & Hop. First, I am featuring these pretty Layered Posies. This set is fun because you can layer different colors for the petals on one flower. The die includes full flowers and partial flowers. The partial flowers can be used with two colors and glued together to make one multi-colored flower. I chose to color them all the same for this project but it's a super fun option to layer multiple colors on one flower head! I used the Gnome Sayings stamp set to add a heart to the Garden Pot and the sentiment. A piece of Basics 12 Limes paper was used in the background. 

Next, I made a cute little birthday card featuring the Birthday Bunnies stamp set.  I stenciled the Birthday Confetti background from this month's Birthday Hugs Bundle to create a celebratory background. I cut the images and sentiment with the Birthday Bunnies Die set and placed them on a Rounded Corner Stitched Square.  

My last card for today made me smile. The Chicken In image is so cute and the Chicken In Dies made it easy to create a fun scene. I die-cut a panel with a Rounded Rectangle 2. Then I used the Cloud Grass Scene and Edgers stencils to set the stage! Chicken Wire paper is the last detail to mention but it was the first piece on the cardbase!

March 15th–17th The Impression Obsession Team will share projects with new March release products! You can find a daily list of participants on the Impression Obsession Blog during the event.

Prizes: Two lucky customers who place an Impression Obsession order during the March Release Week (March 15th–22nd) will receive a special Impression Obsession prize package added to their orders!
