Stars & Hydrangea

Hello all!  Today, I'm sharing a card that features STARS.  That's our theme this week at Topflight Stamps!  The base layer of the card has a piece of patterned paper from Craft Consortium Ink Drops - Ocean.  Then I made a background of stars with the Darkroom Door Starry Night Small Stencil, and a piece of patterned paper from Craft Consortium's Test of Time paper pad.  Though I used a gold stencil paste from Studio Light, the Topflight store has silver in stock for you!  My focal point is a hydrangea flower and leaves from Hobby Art Stamps - Hydrangea, stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and fussy-cut and colored with alcohol markers.  I also stamped a postage stamp from PaperArtsy Ink and The Dog Mini 134 in the same ink and colored it as well.  This was tucked beneath a corner of the hydrangea.  The final touch is a sentiment from Lavinia's Sticker Collection - Uplifting Sentiments, mounted on foam tape.



Supplies used from Topflight Stamps:

Psalm 147:4
He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name.

Have a wonderful day and Fourth of July holiday to my American friends!

Seashell by the Seashore

Hello!  This week at Topflight Stamps our theme is  Beach / Ocean!  I used several items to create a moody ocean themed card.  On a couple of pieces of watercolor paper scraps, I sprinkled PaperArtsy Infusions Dye Sleight Blue powder then spritzed with water liberally.  Once dry, I used Studio Light Scenery Borders Waves die set to cut out some waves. I set those aside and used the PaperArtsy Sara Naumann Mini 118 seashell stamp to create a focal point on ivory cardstock, stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink.  On the card base, I used a PaperArtsy Alison Bomber Summer Edition sentiment stamp and Lavinia Dye Ink Soft Cygnet, stamped repeatedly across the background.  Final touches were some enamel dots from my stash, and Hunkydory Classic Pearls.


Below are the watercolor paper scraps I created with the PaperArtsy Infusions Dye in Sleight Blue.  Aren't they beautiful as-is?

Framed Lemon Flowers - Chou & Flowers

Hello!  This week at Topflight Stamps, we're focusing on a sweet brand called Chou & Flowers.  I used Lemon Flower, which has a filigree frame and lemon flowers and leaves.  I stamped the flowers with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, fussy cut and colored those, and set aside.  I stamped the frame with embossing ink, sprinkled on WOW! Embossing Powder in Silver Smudge and used a heat tool to set it, and trimmed it.  On my white cardstock background, I sprayed Lavinia Spring Moss, spritzed with a little water, and set aside to dry.  Once dry, I used Darkroom Door Small Stencil "Crackle" and Studio Light Stencil Paste in Gold (Silver featured here) to create some shimmery interest along the bottom half of card.  The Chou & Flowers frame and lemon flowers were glued on top, and little pearls from Hunkydory were added to the flower centers.




Thank you SO much for coming by!  I hope you have a beautiful day!

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.

Thank You For Being A Friend

Hello!  This week at Topflight Stamps, we are focusing on a wonderful brand from the Netherlands called Studio Light.  I chose a great set of sentiment stamps called Basic Wishes.  On a white tag, I stamped "thank you" and "for being a friend" with VersaFine Onyx Black ink.  You can mix and match sentiments with this set.  I lightly inked the edges with brown ink, to give a vintage look.  The Craft Consortium Vintage Emporium Paper Pad had the perfect page full of old letters and postcards to use as a backdrop.  Finishing touches from my stash:  a seam binding bow and tiny bit of lace.

Victorian Garden Work

Happy Thursday!  I am here with you to share another garden-related card for Topflight Stamps "Anything Goes" week.  I chose a gorgeous vintage inspired stamp set from Creative Expressions called Chateau Garden.  Oh my.  So many pretty stamps in one set, including some sentiments.  On a pale gray card base, I used a couple of paper snippets from Creative Expressions Nature's Compendium paper pad.  On one squarish piece that has text on it, I stamped the elaborate draping frame and then stamped the word "rose" in the center of it, using my favorite dark black ink from Versafine - Onyx Black.  I also stamped the butterfly / flower cluster from the same set, and trimmed out just the butterfly.  After a few light touches of marker, I added it to the frame and popped it up with dimensionals.  The "No. 15" ephemera on the bottom left came from the Nature's Compendium paper pad too.
