Greetings friends. Impression Obsession has tons of new images that I know you will enjoy. We will be having a hop all week to inspire you to use the new designs, so I hope you will stop by.
For my card, I was really inspired to use the new "Introverting" clear stamp set. It has lots of new sayings that I have never seen before. To make my card, I stamped the new cat stamp and sayings onto 140lb watercolor paper with black Versafine ink. Next, I colored my cat with Zig Clean Color Brush markers and a waterbrush. My biggest tip when doing this is to color the outside of the cat or the cat first and then let it dry COMPLETELY. Next, color the other area in the same fashion. By letting your card dry, it prevents the colors from bleeding into each other.
For the background, I stamped
Here is a closeup of the cat:
