Raspberry Tracy Scott Flowers & Butterflies Cards


Hi friends!  It's Autumn Clark from SewPaperPaint with you today to inspire you on using up extra stamped backgrounds.  You may remember THIS post (and video tutorial HERE) where I shared how to use PaperArtsy Infusions with Versamark ink to make embossable stamped images for resist, well during that process I was left with a load of stamped backgrounds, I mean why not go ahead and stamp them while you are playing, right?!


Here's the lot I was left with...


I knew the funky butterfly from the PaperArtsy Tracy Scott Stamp Set ETS22 would work perfectly with these backgrounds, and to make it easier to do a batch in one quick sitting, I stuck with a monochrome palette.  This was also because the Magenta Infusions I used were so bright and beautiful, I thought it only needed a little contrast with black & white.
 

I added another tap of Magenta Infusions to some water to use with my waterbrush to add a little color to the wings of my butterflies, then layered my scraps like so.  I used the Pronty Quote Stickers and an older PaperArtsy stamp set to emboss a sentiment to finish them off.  It always feels good to sit down and make a good batch of cards in a short time, so let me encourage you to always make extra pieces and keep them near by.  Have a great week friends!  Hugs, Autumn

The Little Things with Darkroom Door~

Hi, Connie here with a card that will remind us of Spring. I'm
creating with the Patchwork Butterfly by Darkroom Door.  It
 fills almost the front of a A2 size card and I might add
looks amazing!

 
The background is the Spanish Tiles Background Stamp by Darkroom
Door.  It is colored with Distress Oxide inks and then sprinkled with
water to give the background a distressed look.  The Butterfly is colored
 with the inks that are in the background.  Design your own by picking 
coordinating inks.


The card front is double matted and then splatted with white 
acrylic paint.  The sentiment sticker was added to complete
 the card.

Paper Rose Embossing

Happy Friday! Ericka here playing with the Paper Rose Hud 6 x 6 Stencil on a Fresco Acrylic background with some embossing.


I love this grungy stencil and there are so many great ways to use it. I created a background using the PaperArtsy Fresco Paints with a brayer and then applied textured paste through the Hud Stencil and then embossed it.


I also used the Paper Rose Mother's Day Quotes which has many more uses than just Mother's Day.

Paper Rose Hugs

    Hi Everyone,

Cornelia here today! 
This week we are showcasing Paper Rose products.


I used those cute little sheep for my card. Unfortunately they are out of stock right now. I masked them and used the Ornamental Grasses from Crafty Individuals as background. Colored the sheep with markers and water brush pens. Added a strip of colored paper and die cut the layered hugs. Added some twine.


I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. 
See you next week with more Topflight Stamps inspiration.

Having fun with Paper Rose!

Hi, Connie here to share a fun card set using Fish & Bubbles 
from Paper Rose.  The set is created in a mixed media style
so I hope you enjoy.  


        I started by creating the background for the image to stamped
             on.  I used stencils and Distress Oxide ink in coordinating
       colors.  The image was stamped with Versafine ink which is a great
          ink when you want the fine details to show up.  So perfect!!
                             


A stamp platform was used also, so the image could be
re-stamped several times, to insure a rich image.


This set was so easy to create with. I love the little fish!!
Such whimsical.  
Products used:


PaperArtsy / P145
(This is a great stencil for water bubbles and added
interest). Looks great outlined with a white gel pen.

I also used the stencil by AALL & Create #42 (currently out of stock).

Hey Gnomie!

Greetings! It's Tuesday which means that it's Kathi here to share a project with you. This week my teammates and I are showcasing products by Paper Rose Studio. I decided to make a tag featuring the adorable Gnomies Clear Stamp Set and Scalloped Rectangles Frame Die Set. I've also used Lavinia Stamps' Mini Meadow Mushroom Clear Polymer Stamp and the Glory Stencil with Wild Mushroom Prism Ink by Hunkydory Crafts.

Here it is!


One of the three gnomes included in the Gnomies Clear Stamp Set was stamped onto white cardstock with Copic friendly ink. It was also stamped onto repositionable label paper that was fussy-cut to be used to mask the gnome. A piece of torn paper was placed horizontally over the bottom of the image panel. Blue Distress ink was brushed over the top part of the image panel. The torn paper was moved to cover the top part of the image panel and green Distress ink was brushed over the base of the image panel. 

The Mini Meadow Mushroom and the Mini Slender Mushroom were randomly stamped using Wild Mushroom Prism Ink.

The smaller of the two frame dies from the Scalloped Rectangles Frame Die Set were used to cut the image panel. The mask was lifted and the gnome was colored with Copic markers, which were also used to touch up the mushrooms.

A strip of white cardstock was brushed with Wild Mushroom Prism Ink to create a background panel and then trimmed to ~ 6.5", leaving a 2" piece for the sentiment. The Glory Stencil by Lavinia Stamps was placed atop the background panel and Wild Mushroom Prism Ink was brushed over the stencil.

Onyx Black VersaFine Ink was used to stamp the sentiment onto the remaining strip of the background panel, then cut with speech bubble cutting die.

The background panel was trimmed to 3.25" wide. Two corners were punched with a tag corner punch and the bottom corners were rounded with another punch. The background piece was then adhered to brown cardstock that was cut .25" larger with the same punched edges. A circle punch was used to add a hole to the top of the tag

The die-cut image panels and sentiment were adhered as shown. Three ribbons were threaded through the hole to finish the tag.

Paper Rose Artist Tag

 Hello Topflight Stamp Fans, Karen Bearse here for this Mixed Media Monday! I hope you are safe & healthy as we are about to get inky. This week I am playing with new to me company of Paper Roses. I chose a stencil & stamp set as the focus of some tag fun.


Love all the colors & the way this set works so well together. For a full tutorial & step outs you can visit my blog here, leave a comment I would love to know what you think! 

Let's look at the products used to create this colorful mess! The stencil is called Color Wheel & the stamp set Artist Tools. 

 


Infusions are always great when you want to add some dynamic color in a few easy steps.  

Using words from stencils as the focal quote is always a good way to go. This ink is rich, smooth & easy to apply. Many colors to choose from French Navy was used this time around. Thanks so much for joining me & I hope you have the chance to get inky!!
