IMPRESSION OBSESSION - IT'S A GUY THING! CHALLENGE


When I saw this stamp set, I had to have it.  I have so many dog and cat friends, I knew I would get lots of use from it.  I thought it would be perfect for the Impression Obsession It's a Guy Thing challenge.  That is a man's man dog!

The stamp set is the IO Mini Peekers, #CS861.   I colored the dog in with copic markers.  The brown edge is to look like wood and was also done with copic markers.

The brick wall was made by my IO Cover-a-Card Distressed Brick #CC083 stamp.  I masked off the dog and stamped it with Fired Brick distress ink.  It just looked too red, so I colored in some of the bricks with colored pencils to give that used brick look and I was very happy with those results!  

I used the IO Grass Border Die, #DIE060-I in two different shades of green, slightly offset from one another to put some texture on the card.  

The sentiment was made using the IO Alpha Plain Uppercase, #DIE158-H dies. I had to get creative.  There was no "?" in the set so I took a capital "P", and cut off one side and used a period from the lowercase set for the dot.  Pretty smart!

Sometimes it just all comes together!  Please visit the Impression Obsession store for lots of inspiring stamps and dies.
