{ Impression Obsession Die Hop – day 1 }

Hi and welcome to our die blog hop. Impression Obsession now manufactures and sells Dies. Our dies are US-made steel dies and are compatible with most tabletop die cut machines. Here is your chance to win some of our dies.

I have been using them on most of my projects. For this hop I created this card using our new Fancy Butterfly die.

Miss you by Daniela Dobson

I die cut the butterflies from patterned paper and only adhered them in the center. I added little jewels for their body. I added washi tape to the top of the journaling card from the new My Mind’s Eye Collectable collection. I sprinkled some Heidi Swapp color shine in Tropicana Teal.

Miss you close by Daniela Dobson

In addition, I wanted to share some of my older cards created with dies.

Happy fall
