Hello!
Today the Impression Obsession team is cards with the theme of 'snow'.
One of my all time favorite IO images is this gorgeous Snowy Branch Cardinal. I deviated from my usual vibrant coloring, this time trying to go the soft, pastel route. I colored the cardinal with Copics and then fussy cut him out.
A Snowflake Background Die cut was added to a white card front. The cardinal image was added, with dimension being added with some scraps of cs. I decided against adding a sentiment as I am frequently needing a note card.
Head over to the IO blog for more snowy inspiration!
I am linking up to Make the Card Challenge- Winter,
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge- Cold as Ice,
