Each day pay us a visit here and then head over and see our fabulous IO Design Team’s projects with our new stamps on their blogs (only one comment per blog per day please). Comment as you hop. Each comment that you leave gives you a chance to win!!! The more blogs you visit each day… the better chance you will have to win a $25 Impression Obsession Gift Certificate!!!
Every day (Monday Jan 5th – Jan 9th), one of the IO designer blogs will be chosen randomly and a winner will be selected from comments on that blog at 10pm CT. The winner will be announced the following day along with the participating blogs for that day.
Two prizes will be awarded on the last day of the hop!
One winner will be for Friday’s comments and another will be chosen from all the comments left throughout the week. Both winners will be announced on Saturday January 10th.
So….if you miss a day or time deadline your comments will still count for a chance to win a $25 Impression Obsession Gift Certificate!
Both Friday winners will be announced on the IO Blog on Saturday, January 10th.
Today I wanted to show you another of the new Cover a Card backgrounds. This time I used the Metal background CC205. I plan to use this backrgound with metallic colors in the future, but for now, I just liked the swirling texture it gives you and used it for a monochromatic card. I stamped it with Colorbox Chalk Azurite ink onto a light blue notecard. I then added the new Flower Silhouette stamp H16082.
I absolutely love the new floral stamp. It just seems to be enough on its own.. With that in mind, I made a second card that I am calling my "30 second card." I literally took two stamps and one ink pad to make a card. No embellishments. No layers. I don't know if I have ever done that before. The best thing is that I was really pleased with the results.

Both cards are lovely and have a very calmness about them. Would be great to send as cards to comfort someone.
