More Mixed Media with Topflight Stamps

Hello, I have another Topflight Stamps project for you. We're continuing with the theme of Mixed Media! Using a Woodware Craft Collection stamp, I made a spring banner that I can hang on a hook for decoration.

The base layer is a piece of cardstock that I layered with adhesive backed aluminum tape. Then I painted the tape with acrylic paint. Once it was thoroughly dry, I lightly sanded it to distress it. The second layer is a Gel Press print I had in my stash. The top layer I created with the Nature Page stamp and AALL & Create Regency Bunting Die Set.

UFO Projects with Eileen Hull – Felt Journal

In case you don't know what a UFO project is, it means an UnFinished Object! I do have several unfinished projects laying around lol. I decided to complete an embroidered felt journal cover I made in… 2022 ha ha. (You can check it out here.) The cover was done but I hadn't made anything to put inside.

I saw an intriguing binding method on Sea Lemon's YouTube channel – single page binding, perfect for thick pages/papers that won't bend into signatures. I wanted to try it out so I cut the pages out of Sizzix Mat Board.

I pulled out my collection of PaperArtsy Lynne Perrella stamp sets to use for all the focal images. I also used Eileen's Fan Favorites Stamp Set throughout the pages.

Thanks for stopping by!

Mixed Media Fun with Topflight Stamps

Hello, I'm back with another Topflight Stamps project for you! This week's theme is a fun one – Mixed Media! (Totally my jam.) I pulled out inks, texture paste, embossing powder and more and went to town.

First I applied some black texture paste through the Olives & Ivy stencil and sprinkled on some WOW! Sea Salt embossing powder onto it while it was wet. I set it aside to dry and then heat embossed it. The second layer is a piece of heavy cardstock covered with an inky, splotchy background and then stamped using the Bubbles stamp to add texture. The top layer is a tag I stamped with the Artsy Alpha Numbers stamp, then heat embossed. Afterwards, I spritzed it with various sprays to get the colors to puddle around the embossed image. The card is topped off with a ephemera sentiment from the Funny Bone Funnies pack.

New Brand! Funky Birds with Topflight Stamps

 Hello, I'm back with another Topflight Stamps project for you! This week's theme is "Anything Goes" so I took the opportunity to play with some Woodware stamps (a new brand in the store). I especially love their funky bird designs so I picked Lola to use for my card.

I stamped on kraft cardstock and then heat embossed the stamping with black embossing powder. Then I colored it in with colored pencils. I really like how colored pencils pop on the kraft surface. It makes for a bright and cheerful card!

Think Spring with Topflight Stamps

Hello, I'm back with another Topflight Stamps project for you! This week's theme is "Spring/Mother's Day". I created a pair of cards to give to my Mom and Mother-in-law next month.

I stamped Summer Meadow using embossing ink and then embossed it with clear embossing powder to form a resist. Then I blended Lavinia ink over the image and also added some Lavinia Dinkles Ink Powder around the edges. Stenciling and die cutting finished it off.
