Rubber Dance SOAR Door Hanger

Welcome to the Topflight Stamps Blog!

Today, I made a Mixed Media altered wooden door hanger using a couple of delicious Rubber Dance stamps.

The wooden base was  first covered with white gesso and then stencilled texture image were added with a stencil and heat embossed with a mix of embossing powders. Some of the powders were with a bit of glitter.
 The whole piece was then misted with a mix of mists.
Then The Studio Light background was stamped over the textured base to add some interest.
The die cut and the chipboard wing were arranged with a few flowers as the main image base.

The main image was stamped with black pigmented ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder and then colored with Distress Oxide inks and glued on the top.

The Rubber Dance sentiment was stamped as one single stamp and then hand cut to strips and glued in a kind of art journal over the finished piece.

And here is another view of the project from the side:

Believe in yourself art page

Hello my dear crafty friends!

Irit is here and today I am going to share a large art journal page made with quite a few of Topflight Stamps shop stamps.

 This is designers free style week and Steampunk/grunge is my most favorite style lately.

Add the fantastic Carabelle Studio stamps that you can buy in the shop to my Steampunk mood and you get this Believe in yourself page.

The page is made over a thick A4 size white cardstock.
First I added a few stencils with texture paste and then misted and painted them with a mix of Distress inks and different mists to get this vintage background. A few Carabelle Studio stamps  were stamped with permanent black ink to add some interest to the background.
Then I added a cluster made of thin chipboards and stamped the Carabelle Steampunk heart to be hand cut, misted and added over the cluster.
The red paint drop were added to imitate the blood drops of the heart.

The sentiment was made with a few Rubber Dance stamps that were stamped over black cardstock using clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
The sentiment was actually made as a collage of four different stamps. This sentiment stamps set is just the blessing for any art journal artist as you can make dozens of different inspirational sentiments just with  one stamp set and each and every sentiment is totally unique.

 Here is some close- up to the main stamped image.

Oh Little Town....

Hi guys.  It's Clare with you today to share with you my second project of Topflight Stamps, Christmas in July.  A little less traditional today but I have chosen to go with some bright and zingy colours to make a vibrant snowy town scene.

I prepared my card using Paperartsy Fresco Acrylic paints.  I stamped a row of Rubberdance Textured Houses onto white tissue paper, heat embossed and put them onto my card with matt medium.

I am really excited to have this set of stamps!  I can se so many uses such as new home cards and I cant wait to use these in a journal spread. 

I added some extra colour to the houses using some Neocolour II water soluble crayons before adding some of my own doodles and highlighting the windows.  Finally some sparkly stickles to layer the houses with snow!
