Hello...


Hello everyone.. Annette Allen here with you today. So sad to share that this will be my last Topflight Stamps post. It has been awesome being on the TFS design team. All of the design team members are so talented and Donna is the sweetest. So thank you Donna for having me.

Today I am sharing a card created using...



I first cut strips of the Neenah: Creative Collection Premium Metallic card-stock and adhered them to the card base. I stamped three of these pretty flowers from the PaperArtsy: Tracy Scot 24-Rubber Mounted Stamp Set and fussy cut them. I adhered them using Scotch foam tape. 

Totally simple card to create.
Thanks for stopping by!

Journey Girl...


Hello everyone... Annette Allen here with you today to share this card I created using Carabelle Studio Floral Journey and AAll & Create Barbary Stars Stencil

I love this Carabelle Studio Floral Journey stamp set. I have used it before but here is another example how you can color this sweet image with really any color combo you like and it is still pretty. I hand cut around the image leaving a hint of white.


I colored the images with Copic Sketch Neon markers. I love neon inks. I also did the stencil in neon. I wanted this card to be full of color. I adhered the image using Scotch foam adhesives to give the image some dimension. I do that on most of my cards. 

Hope you enjoyed todays card.. thanks for stopping by!

Cute Fairy....


Happy Friday Topflight Stamps friends..... Annette Allen here with you today to share this card I created using Carabelle Studio: Fairy of Love stamp set and Jane Davenport: Happy Little Unicorn Die Set.  

I love coloring up this fun little fairy from Carabelle Studio. I colored the images with Copic Sketch markers and cut with my Brother Scan n Cut machine. 


I used a misc. embossing folder and then added some fun Ranger Oxide inks for a colorful and bold background. I used foam adhesives to give all my images some dimension. A simple card with no sentiment that way I can use it just to send a sweet note. 

Thanks for stopping by!


Time to shop and save....

Polka Dots...


Happy Friday everyone.. Annette Allen here with you today to share a card I created using PaperArtsy Tracy Scott ETS25. Totally simple card for you today.

I first cut my card base and stamped this fun background using various colored inks. I used the polka dots rubber stamp from the PaperArtsy Tracy Scott ETS25 set. 


Next I stamped this fun artsy floral image and hand cut around the edges leaving a hint of white. Adhere this image using foam adhesives to give it some dimension and that is it. No sentiment today. I guess you can call this just a note card.

Father's Day...


Happy Friday everyone... Annette Allen here with you today to share this fun Father's Day card created using Paper Roses: Dad's Toolbox stamp set

I created a stamped background for my card base. I used watercolor paper so I could add some simple color using watercolors.


Make sure to let your card dry completely before adhering to your card base. You can use a heat tool or just let it dry on its own. Lastly I stamped the sentiment on a separate piece of card-stock, trimmed and adhered using foam adhesives to give it a little dimension. 

Simple card too recreate and for sure to bring a special person a big smile.
Thanks for stopping by!

Great Love...


Happy Friday Topflight Stamps friends... Annette Allen here with you today and I am sharing a card I created mixing a few sets together. I created this card using That's Crafty: Shroom Town stamp set, AALL & Create: Blossomed Dreams and Studio Light: Brick Mixed Media Stencil

I wanted my card to be full of color and well I think I achieved that goal. 


I colored the images using Copic Sketch markers and hand cut the image out leaving a hint of white around the edges. I cut my card base and then used the Studio Light: Brick Mixed Media Stencil for the background using Ranger Oxide inks. 

After the background was all inked up I adhered my cut image to the base of the card using foam adhesives. I always stamp my sentiment last just because I really never know where I will put it. This time around I stamped it right on the card base. 

Totally simple card to create and as you can see you can use any colors together. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Flower Blossoms...


Happy hello... Annette Allen here with you today to share this card I created using That's Crafty: Fanciful Flowers stamp set by Fliss Goodwin

I did a simple Ranger Distress Oxide ink background and stamped this gorgeous leaf from the Fanciful Flowers stamp set repeatedly until background was covered. 


I added little of white accents with a misc. white gel pen. This highlights the leaf a little more and well I just like adding the white gel to my stamped images. 

I stamped the sentiment on some black card stock and embossed with white embossing powder. I trimmed the sentiment and adhered to card using foam adhesives to give it some dimension.

Thanks for stopping by.
