Repeat Impressions SOTW Mountain Vista


Happy Monday! Monday is becoming one of my favorite days of the week, because I get to play with a new Repeat Impressions stamp and show you our Stamp of the Week. This week's SOTW is the beautiful Mountain Vista (629-I) and is available this week exclusively to our blog readers at 50% OFF with the special discount code available on the RI blog, The House that Stamps Built.

To make my card, I stamped the Mountain Vista on glossy paper and sponged a sunrise and lake. I embossed the frame piece with a Sizzix embossing folder and cut the frame with a nestie. I added the baker's twine bow and raised the frame with mounting tape. I added the sentiment (also Repeat Impressions) and the gems to complete the card.

I am entering this card in the challenges at I Did It Creations (use a diecut) and at Wee Memories (United We Stand, collecting cards for my favorite stamping cause: Operation Write Home).

Stamping smiles, Karen
