IO Sneaks... Day 2!

If you tuned in here at Out to Impress yesterday, you know that this week Impression Obsession is kicking off a week of sneak peeks to unveil their Fall and Winter designs that are a part of CHA this week! Each day, different team members will be showing off these new designs and there will be a $25 gift certificate drawing every day. On Friday, there will be an additional $25 gift certificate to those folks who participated all week!  

On to my creation! It's hard to think of using winter stamps when the temperature outside is nearly 100 degrees -- but hey -- that's the way the stamping world is! :-) So.... here goes!


This little guy is a new one from Claudia Tenorio-Pearl. Isn't he the cutest thing ever? This stamp is called Twinkles (E11044). I colored him up with a mix of Copic markers, added some Stickles Diamond glitter glue. The rest is just matting it all up! The sentiment, stamped on a 1-1/4" punched circle is a stamp, is called Friends are Flakes (A11074).   Add a ribbon and some fun bling! Easy peasy!

Want to see what some of the other IO designers whipped up today? Make sure to hop on over and see....

Thanks so much for stopping by! I'll be back tomorrow with more fun. And... don't forget to visit the  Impression Obsession blog daily for more details!

Oh how pretty is this card- I love your coloring/shading- and the shimmer. I think in Dec, we will be thrilled when we have less Holiday cards to create- I have been making Christmas cards....

How refreshing! That's just how I feel about you, too :)
Great background paper. Your coloring is fabulous, especially the pink aura. If he's hangin' in my neighborhood today, he is HOT! it's 100* and so very, scary dry. Thanks for the fun inspiration. I need to get Mr Wonderful's birthday card done and his presents wrapped. Then there's the card to be made for the nephew and mailed off with a check. And the heat has totally zapped my ambition. Think you could figure out a way to post some of that for me here on your blog? hugs!
