Christmas Cards with Creative Expressions & Topflight Stamps

This week at Topflight Stamps our brand focus is on Creative Expressions. They have so many great stamp designs! I'm taking the opportunity to make some more Christmas cards to send.

I really like the Jane's Doodles whimsical Christmas Tree stamp set. I first stamped the trees onto white cardstock and then embossed with clear detail embossing powder. After heat setting, I spayed the backgrounds is with the Lindy's Stamp Gang Autumn Leaves Starburst Spray set (Ponderosa Pines Olive and Autumn Maple Crimson). When that was dry, I laid a piece of absorbent plain newsprint paper over the embossed paper and ironed it with my craft iron. It causes the embossing powder to re-melt and absorb into the newsprint. (Don't let it cool and stick the newsprint to your background!) This gives you a faux batik look.

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 on the Topflight Stamps blog. There is new inspiration posted often!

Creative Expressions Nature Notebook with Topflight Stamps

Topflight Stamps – Anything Goes Theme!

Hello, I'm back with another Topflight Stamps card for you! This week's theme is "Anything Goes" which is always lots of fun. I used one of the new robot stamps designed by Andy Skinner for Creative Expressions to create an anniversary card to give to my husband.

Specifically, I used the "Better Together" stamp. (So true!) I paired it with a gel print background and die cuts (Paper Rose – Cog Frame).

The backgrounds are created using Lavinia and PaperArtsy Infusions ink powders. (Fun stuff!) The sewing theme is completed with the addition of more vintage buttons. (Told you I have a hoard of them!)

Creative Expressions with Topflight Stamps – Sewing Themed Card

Hello, this week at Topflight Stamps our brand focus is Creative Expressions. They have loads of cool stamp designs! I used the Sewing stamp set to create this card:

The "lace" under the focal image is stamped onto a colored coffee filter and fussy cut out. Of course I had to add some real vintage buttons to embellish it.
