Chou & Flowers Postcard
Hello all! We've got an Anything Goes week at Topflight Stamps! I was inspired by the vintage vibes of a few Chou & Flowers stamp sets: Brittany Text, Envelopes and Postmark Background. I stamped the Envelopes, Brittany Text and Postmark Background in Versafine Clair Nocturne on patterned papers, then fussy cut them all and arranged with some ephemera in my stash. These were layered on a piece of vintage lace trim. The final touches: Hunkydory Pearls!

Nesting Robins
Hello! You've got Colleen here for an Anything Goes week at Topflight Stamps! Considering we're in springtime, I have birds and nests on my mind. I needed a New Home card for someone special, so I pulled out Visible Image "Christmas Robin" stamps as well as PaperArtsy Alison Bomber "House & Home" stamp set. On a scrap of cardstock, I used Versafine Clair ink in Fallen Leaves to stamp the birds (mom and baby), then fussy-cut them out. I had some punched leaves from my stash to snuggle around them to create a nest vibe. I used Versafine Onyx Black ink to stamp the sentiment and add it toward the top of the card. It's a quote from Laura Ingalls Wilder: "Home is the nicest word there is." I also added some pearls as "eggs" in the nest. These are from Hunkydory. One of my fave accents!

Christmas Holly
Hello! We've got "Anything Goes" this week at Topflight Stamps, and I'm sharing a Christmas card to put away for later this year! I started with a pretty marble-ish piece of paper from Craft Consortium Ink Drops Ocean Paper pad, because it reminds me of a frozen pond. I splattered it with Lavinia Snow White Chalk Paint and set aside to dry. With a Crealies Rectangle die, I cut a piece of white paper and stamped a sentiment from Creative Expressions "Tis The Season" stamp set with Versafine Clair Nocturne Black ink. I dragged the edges of the rectangle with WOW! Clear Ultra Slow Drying embossing ink pad, then sprinkled on WOW! Pure Platinum embossing powder and hit it with a heat tool. I also used some of the platinum embossing powder in random spots on the sentiment panel, and used the heat tool from underneath the paper so it wouldn't blow around. On a scrap piece of cardstock, I stamped two holly clusters from Visible Image "Christmas Robin" with Memento Tuxedo ink. Then I colored, fussy cut, and glued them to the sentiment panel.

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.

For my birthday card, I started with a plaid piece of patterned paper. Using Versafine Clair Fallen Leaves ink and PaperArtsy Scrapcosy PS317 stencil, I added a regal design at the top and bottom of the paper. On cream colored cardstock, I stamped the following in Versafine Onyx Black ink and then trimmed them out and sponged edges with brown ink: Crafty Individuals Seven Cheeky Songbirds and Crafty Individuals Vintage Tickets & Ephemera. The Crafter's Companion 'Loving Thoughts' sentiment was stamped on a round die cut, with edges inked in a vintage brown. All of the elements were layered on top of two pieces of vintage lace, nestled between both of the stenciled borders. Thanks for joining me! Best of luck on the hop!
