Happy Halloween

Greetings! It's Tuesday, so you've got Kathi here to share a project with you. It's after Labor Day, which means the next big holiday is Halloween, so I've made another Halloween card with The Birds - Jab Collection Unmounted Red Rubber Stamp Set KTZ247 by Katzelkraft, some of the bat stamps from the Twisted Tree Red Rubber Cling Stamp Set by Darkroom Door, a sentiment from the Holiday Sentiment Duos Clear Stamp Set by Heffy Doodle, and GraphiteViolet Chalk, and Blue Lagoon Elements Inks by Lavinia Stamps.


As per my usual routine, I first stamped and masked the large scared-looking crow from The Birds - Jab Collection Unmounted Red Rubber Stamp Set KTZ247, then I stamped and masked the spooky trees from the same set to the left and slightly behind him. 

The smallest of the Acetate Circle Masks by Lavinia Stamps was placed in the sky and the flattest hill mask from the Acetate Hills Masks by Lavinia Stamps was placed under the spooky trees as shown.

GraphiteViolet Chalk, and Blue Lagoon Elements Inks by Lavinia Stamps were brushed around the masked images to create a night sky.

The Acetate Hills Mask was removed and Pine and Olive Elements Inks were brushed along the base of the image panel to create the grass.

The masks were lifted and retrained and the images were colored with Copic markers.

Onyx Black VersaFine Ink by Tsukineko was used to stamp the bats from the Twisted Tree Red Rubber Cling Stamp Set by Darkroom Door in the sky area to add to the spooky vibe of the card. 

The image panel was heat set, trimmed, edged with black ink, and matted with yellow cardstock.

Onyx Black VersaFine Ink by Tsukineko was used to stamp the Halloween sentiment from the Holiday Sentiment Duos Clear Stamp Set by Heffy Doodle, heat set, then die-cut.

The image panel and the sentiment die-cut were adhered to a 5" x 7" black card.

Too Cute to Spook - Halloween Card

 

Happy September! I think it's fair to say that once September rolls around it is officially Spooky Season. This is Rachel from rwkrafts.com and today I'm sharing a too-cute-to-spook Halloween card.


I received the cutest Halloween stamp set from Topflight Stamps... I couldn't decide which image to focus on since I loved them all so much! With the Crafty Individuals "Halloween 1" stamp set, this card came to be.

By using a window die, I was able to incorporate a bunch of little mini-scenes and incorporate almost all of the adorable stamps from the set. Each stamp was colored with Copic markers, fussy cut, and added to their little window scene.


Here are the Copics used to create the card.




Thanks for stopping in! This was a quick one today :)

PaperArtsy Fresco Gel Printed Floral Birthday Card Trio

 

 
Hi friends!  It's Autumn Clark from SewPaperPaint with you today to share a few fun floral cards made with gel prints.  If you've been bitten by the gel printing bug like so many of us, you'll know how quickly you can amass a pile of prints.  I love turning my prints into cards and journal pages and focused on using some fun floral stamps by PaperArtsy to finish today's cards.  I've shared a video tutorial on gel printing and using your stamps to finish a card HERE if you'd like to know more about the process.
 

 

For this card, I used a combination of Tracy Scott flower stamps (TS006 and TS022) over a scalloped border print, stamped with a Jofy stamp (JOFY79).  The main background was my brayer off paper (an old book page).  I stamped the flowers onto my gel prints with Versafine ink and heat set, then added coloring with my Prism brush markers. 

For my next card, I used only one stamp set, Tracy's funky flowers (TS006).  I did the exact same as above, but added some Posca paint pen for the white accents and some doodling for a border. 

 
I added sticker sentiments to all of these cards because the black popped against the bright colors.  These first two were more like solid color gel prints with various PaperArtsy Fresco Chalk Acrylics

For the last card, I used a stencil in my printing (PS132), then finished with some stamping of Jofy's tulip stamps (JOFY113).

 I used the same scalloped border along the bottom and some more doodling to frame the panel.

Mixed Media Mini Fall Journal Page

 

Happy Friday creative friends! Ericka from Strangely Creative here and today I'm playing in a mini journal creating a fall themed layout using a variety of Topflight Stamp supplies including PaperArtsy Fresco Paints and Infusions and a variety of Visible Image supplies.

 I started by applying gesso to my page and used PaperArtsy Fresco paints in Banana, Firebird, and Taupe and applied it to my journal with a brayer. I took PaperArtsy Infusions in Golden Sands and Sunset Beach and sprinkled it on my page and used my sprayer to spread the color around.

 

Once my pages were dry, I used the Visible Image Round in Circles set and randomly stamped the images using Lavinia Elements ink in Merlot, Paprika, and Henna. I then stamped the mushrooms from the Visible Image Totally Toadstools sets and cut them out with my Brother Scan and cut.

 

After gluing down my mushrooms, I added some textures to my background using the Visible Image Heavy Rain stencil. On my other page, I used the Visible Image Erika's Maple and added leaves and another sentiment with Versafine Clair ink.


I finished my page using a white Posca pen for highlights.


Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Don't forget to take advantage of the Labor Day Sale going on now.

Celebrate Fall with AALL&Create

 Hi Everyone,

Cornelia here today. This week we are getting into fall here at the Topflight blog. And one of those typical fall fruits are pumpkins. An amazing plant, if you think about it! Some of the pumpkins can reach over 2000 pounds! Mine here are rather on the small side....

I brayered the background. Stamped the pumpkins on it. Stamped them again onto white paper and cut them out. Took a dark grey marker and went around the edges, to get rid of that white cut side. Not much work, but looks a lot better that way. Glued the white pumpkin onto the stamped on on the card. Added the sentiment. Trimmed the card and mounted it onto black paper and the card base.

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