Topflight Stamps - In Memoriam Rachel Greig

 Hi Everyone,

This week we are remembering Rachel Greig from Darkroom Door on the Topflight blog. She recently passed away, battling pancreatic cancer. She is a huge loss for the stamping community. She was incredibly talented, inspirational and kind. Sending my sympathies to her family.
I recently added this wonderful stamp set to my collection. It's called Twisted Tree. I started making the background first, cutting a stencil with a generic circle die. Brushed the center with Forest Moss distress ink and Shahara Elements ink. Brushed around the circle in black, using the cut out as mask. Stamped the tree and the birds and bats. Used acrylic ink with a thin brush to add some white highlights. Stamped and heat embossed the sentiments onto black cardstock and added them. I also added "SPOOKY" with Versamark, although it does not come out well in the photo. 

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

And here are the stamp supplies I used:

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies
