SSSC62 Love You - Impression Obsession last day!!!!

Hello and happy TGIF!!!

WOW this week has flown by.....can't believe it's Friday already!!! I was invited to a Stampin' Up event last night and had the opportunity to meet Shelli Gardner.....yep that's right.....she is the sweetest person and I'm so thrilled I had a chance to meet her in person!!! My friend Penny and I had so much fun meeting new stampin' friends and I promise to share some photo's and projects soon (hopefully tomorrow)!!!

Anyway, today marks the last day for the Impression Obsession Week over at Stamper's Dream !!! It is also my last day with the fabulous ladies from the SD DT and I want to thank Michelle for the wonderful opportunity to be her Guest Designer!!! Thank you Michelle!!!



I inked up the sweet My Funky Valentine Set!!!  I used the Sweet Sunday Sketch #62 for my layout. The image was inked in Memento Black and I colored it with Copic Markers.  I embossed my background with the sweet Cuttlebug Heart Folder. My colors for this card are Red, Pink and Black. At last I added the sentiment, the Black Ribbon and the Red Gemstones.

Here is a *CAS* idea......


The flourished image was inked in Memento Black. The flower was punched out with the Scalloped Circle Punch and I used the DP from the Riding Hood Red Collection. I added a Large Silver Eyelet and a Clear Rhinestone Brad in the center. The sentiment was created with this Set. To finish the card off I added the Black/White Checker Ribbon.

Please make sure to stop by Laurie, Tosh and Michelle and see their ideas with the Impression Obsession Stamps. Just in case you missed the entire week of fabo Impression Obsession creations...stop by HERE to get caught up!!!

Have a fabulous weekend friends!!! Thank you for taking the time to stop by!!!
