IO challenge- Tag You're It!
Greetings friends. Today is all about tags...either alone or on a card. Luckily, Impression Obsession has lots of new tag dies that makes everything so much simpler.
If you would like to learn more about the challenge as well as see a list of participating designers, you can read all about it over on the Impression Obsession blog.
I don't know about you, but I absolutely love a pun. I knew that I had to pair my cute snail image with the corresponding sentiment. It makes me smile.
To make the card, I first made my background. I had some left over ink on my Dancing Leaves Cover a Card background, so I spritzed it and stamped it on some 140lb watercolor paper. I kept repeating the process on different pieces of paper so that I had lots of backgrounds. Each time I spritzed the paper and stamped it, the image got fainter and more indistinct. The piece I used on my card is one of the last pieces I made.
For my tag, I cut out some 140lb watercolor paper using the new Stitched Tag die. I then stamped it with the Fairy Snail in Versafine ink and colored it with Zig Clean Color real brush markers. I added my Snailed It sentiment, popped up the tag with some foam tape and added a twine bow.

IO Challenge- Hugs and Kisses
Greetings friends. Today we have a new challenge, and this time the theme is "Hugs and Kisses." I hope you will play along with us! If you would like the full set of instructions, please visit the Impression Obsession blog. There is even a chance to win a gift certificate. Good luck!
Valentine's Day is fast approaching. Have you sent a card to anyone who needs hugs and kisses?
For today's card, I made a love card using some Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers and a waterbrush. I stamped the love sentiment onto 140lb watercolor paper with black Versafine ink before coloring all the components. For layering the card, I first place my sentiment onto a decorative square die. Next, I layered it onto a square I stamped with the new mini gingham cover a card background. Easy!
