All roads lead to home at Christmas featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!

Are you a fan of Art Impressions Windows to the World?  I sure am! I love the sayings that Bonnie puts around these beautiful works of art!  This one truly touches my heart. It's Christmas Drive  and who doesn't want to be home for the Holidays?!  They are so beautiful colored with watercolors, but this time I used my Copics to bring it to life.  Colors used are listed below.

Sending Cheer your way featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!

I like being able to combine stamp sets to make them whatever I want, don't you?  So for this card, I took some of the embellishments and a sentiment from the fun #5192 Penguin Cheer Set along and added them to #5181 Mailbox Cubbies. It was fun stuffing all those mailboxes full of Holiday fun and then decorating them with lights and ornaments! On the paper scroll that comes with the mailboxes, I turned it into Santa's list by just writing on it with a super fine tip pen.

We're how old??? Featuring Art Impressions

I love Art Impressions stamps so much, I think cause they're just so easy to relate to. This one is no different. For my card today, I used Live Laugh Love Set. I stamped her onto Cryogen white paper and colored her up with Copic markers, added some fun, festive paper and a sentiment and voila! A cute, quick card that goes together super quickly!

A Teenie Weenie hug featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!

Today's card features one of the fun Twist Ties Sets #4987 Dog Twist Ties. Love these Weenie Dogs! LOL!  And the sentiment is perfect for this set!  Art Impressions makes it sooooo easy by selling sets of the Twist Tie Cards! The stamp set comes with the heart shaped die too! All I did was glue on my decorative paper on top of the Twist Tie Card, stamp the dogs onto the card, then die cut out around them.  For the dogs, I simply stamped them onto the cryogen white paper to color them, then cut them out and glued them on top of the stamped image on the decorative paper. Super easy!

Happy weekend to you!  It's now officially fall and we are truly getting fall weather this weekend in Reno!  They are talking snow!!  I mean...c'mon!  It's not even October yet! LOL!!
