Valentine's Day Cards with Topflight Stamps

Hello, this week at Topflight Stamps our theme is all about Valentine's Day! It's fun to make cards for friends and loved ones and there is certainly a large selection of stamps and stencils to choose from in the store. I made this cute card:

The background is a sheet of AALL & Create Design Paper from the Papyrus Vert #7 pack. (Handy and quick!) I stamped over that using the Heartfelt Pattern Carabelle Stencil / Stamp Set. I topped it off with some fussy cut images from the AALL & Create Stamp Set, Heart Hugs, stamped and watercolored.

Spooky Time with Topflight Stamps

Or not so spooky ha ha. Hello, this week our Topflight Stamps focus is Halloween and Fall themes. The Halloween cards I created fall more into the "cute" category instead of spooky.

I experimented with using the Carabelle Studio mask The Halloween House to make some different backgrounds. For two of them I spritzed spray stains through the mask and on the third I used the inky mask to make a monoprint.

I picked my two favorites to make cards out of. The AALL & Create die set I used is SkyCrossed Paradise (so many great details you can cut with this set!) The star of the card is the super cute little witch cat, a PaperArtsy Zinis mini stamp. I watercolored it and fussy cut out the image.

Be a Mermaid with Topflight Stamps

It's the weekend and spring is on the way! The weather is starting to turn around here and I love it. I plan on spending Saturday doing some garden cleanup. I'm getting the urge to make spring like projects now too. A few weeks ago I was playing around with the Gel Press and Gel Press Texture Plates and made this spring-y card. At the same time I made the green backgrounds, I made some blue toned ones too in anticipation of making this card for my mermaid loving sister-in-law's birthday.

Check out that past post for info on how to make the Gel Press background using Distress Oxide inks and the Carabelle Gel Press Texture Printing Plate. The mermaid herself I stamped on another sheet of paper, watercolored and fussy cut out to glue onto the card.
