Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Welcome to the Topflight Stamps Blog. We are thrilled to be participating in the Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. For more information on the hop click here. 

Topflight Stamps is one of the sponsors of the Hop. We are offering a $25 gift certificate to one lucky participant!! We are ALSO having a little sale to start off the hop. All items in our Coffee/Tea/Cocoa Category will be 25% off Friday, June 23 - Sunday, June 25 (ends at midnight EST). 

For my card I used a stamp set from the British company For the Love of Stamps by Hunkydory Crafts. This awesome stamp set is called Coffee Time. It has so many cute coffee and tea related images. I love the sentiment I used that says, "Good coffee is a pleasure, Good friends are a treasure."

I colored the coffee cup with Copic Markers and stamped with Tree Branch and Black Archival inks. The papers are from a Heidi Grace paper pad called Sunshowers. The solid paper is Wisteria from Papertrey Ink. The die is from an Avery Elle set called Postage stamp.

Welcome to the Topflight Stamps Blog. Today our Guest Designer Lisa Hoel is sharing some ATCs she made with our Lavinia Stamps. The stamp she used on the one on the far right is currently out of stock, but it will be back in a few weeks.  She's done a great job with these "fantastical" stamps from England.

Sunday Spotlight - Darkroom Door

Welcome to another Sunday Spotlight, the first one on our new blog. Today we are featuring the Australian Stamp Company Darkroom Door. 

Here is the description of their business from their Web site: 

"Darkroom Door designs, manufactures and distributes quality art rubber stamps and photographic paper craft products suitable for card making, scrapbooking, invitations, mixed media, collage and altered art. 

Darkroom Door was founded in 2007 by professional photographer Rachel Greig and graphic designer Stewart Yule. While traveling throughout Europe in their blue Kombi van Stewart and Rachel brainstormed an idea that would combine their love of art, design and photography into a range of art rubber stamps and paper products for the stamping and paper craft industry. From humble beginnings in Rachel's photography studio, Darkroom Door moved it's headquarters in 2009 to a larger studio and warehouse where they design, manufacture and distribute Darkroom Door products within Australia and export to more than 18 countries worldwide."

Topflight Stamps carries a large selection of Darkroom Door Stamps. 

Below is a gorgeous card created for us by Veronica Zalis using the Darkroom Door Stamp Set Hummingbirds.
