IO Blue Challenge

CLICK HERE for MFPaHC BLOG HOP

I created this tag to enter in the Impression Obsessions Blue Challenge. I just discovered this challenge and since I recently purchased some Impression Obsessions dies I decided to create a tag. I will say that the IO dies cut very nicely through my Cuttlebug and I am happy with each set I have in my collection. They are thin American Steel dies at a reasonable price.

Here is my Blue Tag
