The instant invention is an aqueous based blend composition and method of producing the same. The aqueous based blend composition according to the present invention comprises: (a) an aqueous polyolefin dispersion comprising the melt blending product of one or more base polymers and one or more stabilizing agents in the presence of water and optionally one or more neutralizing agents, wherein the polyolefin dispersion has an average volume particle size diameter in the range of from 400 to 1500 nm, and a pH range from 8 to 11; and (b) one or more crosslinking agents selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkylamide resins, and combinations thereof, wherein said crosslinking agents comprise from 0.1 to 50 percent by weight based on the solid content of the dispersion; wherein said aqueous based blend composition has a solid content in the range of from 15 to 70 percent by weight of solids, based on the weight of the aqueous based blend composition, wherein said solid content of said blend composition comprises up to 99.9 percent by weight of the one or more base polymers, based on the weight of the solid content of the aqueous based blend composition, based on the weight of the solid content of the aqueous based blend composition, and a pH in the range of from 8 to 11.
