Would You Like to See What's Fresh and New from Impression Obsession?

Whether you're creating a handmade card that celebrates a housewarming, welcomes a loved one home, or announces a move across town (or across the world), these new stamps from Impression Obsession have all the cozy feelings of home-sweet-home. 

I'm sharing my favorite card FIRST today. This Happy Home Sweet Home card is packed with things I love - clean and simple layout, pops of bright colors, and of course. . . polka dots! Just two stamps make a big impression on this clean and simple card. 

This card would be perfect for a variety of occasions: 

• Welcome a loved one home from a deployment or home from college
• Celebrate the purchase of a new home 
• Send well wishes to someone moving
• Celebrate a homecoming after an extended stay in a hospital or rehab facility. 

I created the first card, above, by paper-piecing. I stamped the image onto a few different colors of cardstock, and then cut and layered it together. (I colored the polka-dots with markers though.) 

For the next card, I did a little fancy (not-really) stamping. This stamp is three houses. First, I stamped it twice on a white cardstock panel. Then I stamped it one more time on a scrap of cardstock, fussy cut it and adhered it in between the two images. I colored all of the houses with alcohol markers. (Not an affiliate link, but I am really loving these Caliart markers I got on Amazon. They are a great price too!) 

Today's third card features the Cottage stamp. I did some masking for this card so I could ink the sky and grass around it. Then I colored the image with markers.
