Pink Hearts Valentine

Hello!  This week at Topflight Stamps we are using red and pink as our theme.  I created a Valentine, focusing heavily on pink.  On a pink cardstock base, I stamped the script from Studio Light Victorian Dreams stamp set to cover the background, using Lavinia Spun Candy dye ink.  A manila tag is full of hearts, thanks to the same Spun Candy ink and a PaperArtsy Sara Naumann Hearts Stencil (PS121).  I used a strip of the Studio Light Victorian Dreams packaging to decorate the bottom of that tag, along with some rosette ribbon from my stash.  The butterflies are from that same stamp set, stamped in Morning Mist by Versafine Clair, trimmed and glued down in the centers of their bodies only so that the wings can stand up.  The sentiment was selectively stamped / trimmed from a PaperArtsy Alison Bomber Love Edition quote.

AALL & Create Morning Glory

Hello everyone!  After a hiatus, I am so happy to be back on the Topflight Stamps Design Team!  I've got a fun card today to share with you.  I had fun playing with PaperArtsy Fresco Finish Chalk Paints on some packaging I was about to discard.  The paints covered up the cardboard package nicely!  I used Taupe and Koala with a medium size dry paint brush directly onto the cardboard, and it dries fairly quickly.  The AALL & Create "Flower Press" by Tracy Evans was stamped right onto the painted surface with Versafine Onyx Black Ink.  Then I used Lavinia Snow White Chalk Paint to spatter on some spots. It was lovely as-is, but I decided to go a step further and do some paper piecing using the Craft Consortium Ink Drops "Ocean" paper pad to highlight the blossoms and a couple of leaves.  LOVE how it turned out!  Final touches were several Hunkydory Diamond Sparkle Silver Gemstones in random spots.
