Inky Impressions DT Call!

You know how I love to find new stamp companies, and I just love stamps! Well I have been following Inky Impressions for a bit now, actually since before Nicole launched the site and I have been loving what I've seen! The adorable stamps featuring Angelica, Lili, Nickie, and Rachel are just some of the cutest girls around, and right now Inky Impressions is having a Design Team call! I ordered some of the winter stamp sets from their new release at the beginning of the month (okay so I ordered a bunch of stamps, there were too many to pick from!) and the challenge for the Design Team call was to create an ornament using their stamps! I haven't made an ornament in ages, so this was certainly a challenge, but I had a lot of fun with this! I hope you like what I created! For all the details on the Design Team Call, just check out the Inky Impressions Challenge Blog!For my ornament I used this cute stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps (Sorry! My Inky Impressions Stamps have not arrived yet, but they are in the mail!). Since this was to be an ornament I went for the winter look, complete with shades of light and darker blues and lost so snowflakes and glitter! I love the shine Stickles give to things, plus this snowflake punch I got from the store about two weeks ago is just perfect for a winter ornament. I had a lot of fun with this, and look at that shine! Too much fun!Be sure to check out all the great ornaments submitted, you are sure to love them like I do! Have a great day and thanks for taking the time to look at my creation for today!
