Special Day

Today is a very special day for the Impression Obsession team because today we are showcasing the new dkdesigns images.  These are very special images for IO because they were created by our very own design team member, Dina Kowal.  I am sure that many of you are followers of Dina's blog and are in love with her coloring talent.  Now you can enjoy her collage/vintage style of stamps as well.

For my card, I was inspired by her aviation and travel stamps.  The fact that Fathers' Day is fast approaching also encouraged me to make a masculine looking card.  To make the card, I stamped the background several times with the Passport Collage (D13021) and the top of the card with the Airplane Corner (F13014) and the May Your Trails (D13001) saying.  I also stamped the airplane corner a second time so that I could cut out an extra plane to pop up on the card.  To add a little color to the collage, I colored the planes with a brown watercolor pencil and softened it with a Dove blender pen.

I hope you will visit the other Impression Obsession design team blogs to get a feel for Dina's wonderful new stamp collection.  Daniela, Dina, Jeanne, Jenny, Julie, and Vicki all created something for you to see.
