Hello Ai fans!
Today is a big day for me, or at least the next couple days are.
How long have YOU been an Art Impressions fan?
For me it's been about 12 years.
Back when there were land lines in houses I can remember walking in from work and hearing my phone ring. I answered the call and was invited to be a part of the Art Impressions Design Team.
I accepted the invitation and have never looked back.
Tomorrow is my 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!
How lucky am I??!!
For my 10 year anniversary I have a couple things...
First off... I have a giveaway!
Be sure to scroll all the way past my cards for the giveaway.
Be sure to scroll all the way past my cards for the giveaway.
Secondly, I've had some medical issues the last few months.
My cards are Thank You cards for my medical team.
I made a few different versions because I have quite the staff!
Don't I sound fancy?? lol!
This set comes with several different adorable verses and
accessory stamps like the cute band-aid.
On my last card I modeled the black and white dotted mug over one that I have and love.
I'm planning on taking a goodie basket to them as well. I hope they enjoy it!
For my third card I switched up the colors and paper.
I accessorized with some enamel dots and a button nurses hat.
Now...for the REALLY fun part. For my anniversary I have a gift for YOU!
Since it's July I figured I'd give away a Christmas set because who doesn't love Christmas is July?

Congratulations on your 10 year anniversary Renee! I'm sure your medical team will love their cards. I'll continue to pray that you'll be fully restored to good health. I live in the Midwest (Chicago, Illinois suburbs to be precise) and I love the seasons. Fall is my favorite, but it wouldn't be winter for me without snow. I always joke that I would retire to some place colder before I would retire to some place warmer. Looking forward to enjoying more of your designs in the coming years!
Congratulations on your 10-year anniversary with AI! I love your cards and these are no exception. They are super cute and I'm sure your medical team will appreciate them very much. I love snow! I don't particularly like to have to drive in it, but if I can watch it coming down it is so beautiful and peaceful. My love of AI started back at the very beginning of AI, but really took off once the watercolor line was released in the late 90's. That's a lot of years . . .
Congratulations on your anniversary! Love your cards.
Being from Minnesnowta, I have a love / hate relationship with snow. If it would learn to fall only on non-travel areas like roads, sidewalks, and parking lots, I would love it unconditionally ��
Congratulations Renee. Art Impressions are so lucky to have you on their team. Your cards are amazing. So glad to be able to see them.
Congrats on your 10-year mark, Renee! That's awesome! Love the cards you created to share with your medical team! I'm sure they will be much appreciated!
I do love the snow! We don't get much at all where I live, maybe just a dusting or two each winter, but I don't have to go very far if I want to see some! About 30 minutes away, at a higher elevation, they get quite a bit more!
I love the cards you made for medical team. Your first card is so adorable! Congratulations on 10 years with the best stamp company around! I associate your name and Karen’s name with Ai. So many beautiful cards I’ve seen long before I even realized how much I loved Ai. I do love snow! I love to eat it with diet Pepsi and a spoon. I already have those dies so don’t put me in the drawing.
Congratulations on your 10th year anniversary and thanks for sharing your inspiration! I always enjoy your beautiful cards. Now that I live in the south I sure miss having a white Christmas. When I was a kid nothing was better than a snow day!
I like snow as long as I have some place warm to go after….congratulations on 10 years
I love snow because I love the changing seasons here in Massachusetts.
Congrats Renee! Lovely designs. I appreciate the inspiration!
Congratulations on your 10 year anniversary with the best company possible. I love to see your cards and these are no exception. The medical team will love them. I do like the snow if it is only a couple of inches for a day or two. SNowmageddon was a little too much here in Oregon. Thank you for the opportunity to win these Dies.
Congratulations! Wishing you a speedy recovery as well. The nursing staff will love all these thank you cards!
I love Art Impressions ~ especially all the creative people who share their talents and answer questions for us! So THANK YOU!
Besides Christmas cards and decorations I have 10 people I send Birthday cards to in January ~ so Snowflakes would be great to win!!
Thank you for the chance to win! ~ Kristin
Times flies, no doubt about it. Lucky you to work for a company that makes such diverse stamps. I used to like snow more than I do now that I am older because I don't like shoveling!! But it sure is pretty in a wooded setting. Thanks for the chance to win the snowflake dies!
First: Congratulation!!! :) and I love "Snowwatching", I don't need to walk in it *lol*, I have a Alergie if it is to cold :( *lol*, but I love to watch, it is not so often in our section of Germany. Thank you for the chance to win this wonderful dies!!
I lived in New York City for the first 7 years of my life and walked through snow and slush to get to school. I wore leggings. Now I can see snow every winter on the peaks that surround my dessert home. It is a beautiful sight.
10 years is awesome!
I lived in Northern
Utah for 40 years and
moved this year to Arizona
to get out of the snow!
It's pretty but I don't
enjoy it.
Carla from Arizona
Sorry to hear of your medical issues, and hope you are now on the mend
We do not get snow here so really have no experience of it!
I think snow is beautiful and I love decorating with snowflakes and building snowmen, but not a fan of dealing with snow (shoveling, ice, driving). I prefer a warmer climate. PS - I hope you are doing well with your recovery. 💕
Wow, 10 years with AI....lucky you! I hope you are feeling better now. We get lots of snow where I live & it is really pretty to look at but sometimes that snow brings very cold weather with it which I am not a fan of! With 5 months of winter it's great to have granddaughters that play ice hockey so we spend lots of time at the rink!
I like snow, but that's because I don't LIVE in the snow. I live in southern CA. :)
Congratulations on 10 years with AI! I like snow when I'm inside with a hot cup of cocoa looking out the window watching the falling snow. Born and raised in Southern California, I could not live anywhere where it snowed. Thank you for the chance to win!
Congratulations on your anniversary! I love AI's stamps and dies! I like snow. I live in Western Missouri, along the Kansas, Missouri line, and we get our fair share of snow. I like it as long as I don't have to drive in it. I love to use snowflakes on my layouts and cards. They are so pretty! Thanks for a chance to win!
Light snow is great, heavy not so much, but snowflakes are great!
I used to frequent AIs store in Keizer, sadly no storefront now;
have a lot of Bonnie's early stamps.
Congratulations on the 10 years! Having spent many months in hospitals and inpatient physical rehab in recent years, I am sure the staff will love the cards. Being a patient is a humbling experience and those that care well for you when you are in pain are angels. As for snow, I love to watch it fall and coat everything from my window. I can't walk in it now (wheelchair), but I love to see it. I have a hill in my yard that the neighborhood children love to sled down and their squeals of delight are the best winter music.
Congratulations on ten years. I love your cards both my kids are nurses and I have uses the set often. Love the snowflakes
Happiest of anniversaries to you Renee. Love your designing spirit. 'Keep on keeping on'! Oh yeah, I love snow in somebody else's yard.
Congrats on 10 years! Your cards are wonderful, and thanks for the chance to win the snowflake dies.
Congrats,,,what a fun anniversary...I do love those Band-Aids!!! We live about 45 minutes west of Lake Michigan in SW Michigan...I love the lake effect snow!!! I hope your health issues are behind you...blessings...lynn
Congratulatiins on 10 years of creating beautiful cards and for being able to inspire Artistic Impressions clients. I love snow, especially when. I can admire the birds in it from inside the house.the
Love snow as long as I don’t have to go out. Sure enjoy the sight of falling snow though.
Congratulations on loving your job! I have been an AI admirer since about 1990 ( first started stamping). I love snow and the pictures of snow. Hope I win the dies because I don’t have any.
Congratulations! I live in Canada so so goes with the territory and I love snow!

Congratulations! I love learning and looking at all the AI posts. In our drought and 110 heat here today, a few snowflakes would be wonderful.
Congratulations on 10 years. Summer is my favorite season. I like snow when it first comes in winter and of course at Christmas to Michigan. It is so pretty then. The yearling white tails that live in the forest behind my house love it, too. They have never seen snow before and they love to bounce around in it. But then if it snows in April or even as late as May, that's a real bummer. Spring and then summer are what I want to see, beautiful flowers and warm summer breezes.
Thanks for letting us have a chance to win a snowflake die. Hope you are on the mend. Your card was amazing.
I've been here in Montana for 2.5 years. Two full winters. I moved here from Northern Utah. I know SNOW!! It is beautiful.... to look at. Really can't say I love being in it or driving in it. I'll say Snow scenes are gorgeous though. Congratulations on your 10yer. 😉
I love snow! Especially if there is enough to make a snowman!
I have only seen snow once. It was so beautiful. I was shocked however to find out falling snow didn’t make noise. I thought it would be noisy like rain.
I love snow as long as I don't have to get out in it...lol
Congratulations on your 10 year Anniversary! I live in an area with snowy winters. I'd say I'm not a big fan of snow when I have to drive in it, but fresh fallen snow and some snowfalls can be very pretty. And paper snowflakes are always beautiful! :) Thanks for the chance to win this beautiful snowflake die set!
A Super Congratulations to you Renee for your 10th anniversary with A.I. I just made my 1st. anniversary last month so I have a ways to go. I love your cards, the medical personell will too. Please keep me in mind for a chance to win the Snowflake dies. Thanks so Much!
Smiles
