Retro Day - IO July Release Hop Day 2

Hello, and welcome to the Impression Obsession Release Hop Day 2! You can find all the details below. 

Visit HERE for a look at all that is new! 

I created a piece of wall art for my first project. I framed an old photo of my kids with the retro Slide Frame Die. The Slide is a lovely design element to feature photos or stamped images. This die made me think of my early years. My dad dabbled in photography for a while. I can still smell the photo chemicals. It was magical seeing the white paper transformed into images! However, I was not impressed with the slides. Haha.  I wanted to see pictures! 

Additionally, I used the adorable tiny hearts from the Tiny Tags Sayings Set to stamp on the tag. Last, I used some lovely patterned paper from the Heart Tiles paper as a background.

Next, I had fun with the Happy Mail stamp set and the Large Postage Stamp Die. Happy Mail is one of three new mail stamps. I also used Heart Gingham Paper and a Rounded Corner Sentiment 2 Die.  

July 8th, 9th & 10th The Impression Obsession Team will share projects with July Release products! Every day during the event, a list of participants will be available on the Impression Obsession Blog.

Prizes - Two lucky customers who place an Impression Obsession order during the July Release week (July 8th–14th) will receive an Impression Obsession prize package added to their orders!

Every Road

Wow, our summer has been anything but ordinary this year!  Our college student came home and took on two jobs so we didn't' see him very much.  Our daughter received a part in a S.T.A.R. production of Hairspray and rehearsed all summer so we didn't see her a lot either! The start of school began last week for our high school student and tomorrow the summer officially ends as we help our college student get situated in an apartment!  

With all the hustle and bustle of last minute activities last week I missed out on creating a blog post for a card that I created for Janine's Dare to get Dirty challenge at Splitcoaststampers.  Dare to get Dirty is a fun week for Fan Club members which includes prizes for completing art challenges!  

The challenges are top secret for Fan Club members only so I can't tell you the details of Janine's challenge but I can tell you about my card!

My stamp collection didn't include a stamp I wanted to use for Janine's sweet challenge so I thought out of the box a bit and pulled up a photo I took in mid-July then edited it with a sketch app on my phone.

The Dare to get Dirty challenges are done for this year but there is still time to upload projects so I encourage you to check them out!
