Stars & Hydrangea

Hello all!  You've got Colleen here today, 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!  For 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.

Hope you have a wonderful week! ~ Colleen

Mixed Media Happy Birthday Card

Hello, Lisa Hoel here. This week at Topflight Stamps our theme is "Media"! That means we get to play with inks, paints, sprays and all the mixed media goodies. Fun! I created a cheerful birthday card…

I made the background using Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays and Magical Shakers (ink crystals). I love the colors and bit of glimmer in them. I cut the clouds out of a Gel Press print from my stash and the fussy cut PaperArtsy bird stamp has been watercolored.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out the Topflight Stamps store for a wide selection of different and hard to find stamps, stencils and other paper crafting supplies from all around the world! Also keep an eye here on the Topflight Stamps blog. There is new inspiration posted often!
