The Impression Obsession challenge is to create a card "inspired by a quote". I always find this very difficult. I am expecting some lovely quote type stamps from my big IO shopping binge, but I didn't have anything on hand that I wanted to use. So I printed the one I used on the computer and whipped up a simple little card to go with it.
I used the IO Cover-A-Card Canvas ( CC073) stamp on the background and the cute IO Butterflies die (DIE046-A). Brightly coloured twine and Beautiful Life Echo Park paper make it cheery.
I hope everyone got lots of goodies from the awesome IO sale. I know that trying to keep my list within reason was so very difficult!

Shona, I always like your cards!! Great quote and I love the little IO butterflies (I don't have this die but now want to get it, ha!, I did buy the cat die during the sale though :) ). Love the twine too. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Shona, Your card and quote are beautiful. That canvas background looks very real, great stamp. Red, white & blue are great together. I hope you are having a wonderful week, Shirleyx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and happy card, Shona! I really like the colors and the butterflies are so sweet. I am admiring your background and wondering if that background stamp did make my order. My wish list was long and seeing your card makes me hope I ordered it!!
