Topflight Stamps - Where did the Sun go?

  Hi Everyone, This week's theme on the  Topflight blog  is anything goes. My favorite theme! I used a fun stamp from Crafty Individuals  - one of my favorite British stamp companies. I love their whimsical stamps. and this one is perfect for winter. It's appropriately titled  Where did the Sun go ? I smooshed the background with distress inks. I stamped the birds on it. I stamped the birds again onto a piece of scrap paper and colored them with alcohol ink markers. Cut them out. I heat embossed some snowflakes onto the background. Left it without a sentiment - I don't think it needs one. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays with Topflight Stamps

Hi Everyone, I wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays, whatever you prefer. And I have a last Christmas card for you. I made the backgrounds with trees form Winter Wonderland - stamped them in grey and black. I took a generic tag die, water color paper and stamped the Christmas Tree stamp on it with Lavinia Elements ink. I then sprayed it with Lavinia Mystical Mica spray and let it dry. Stamped and colored the cat and cut it out. I used some gold threaded twine for the top of the tag. Assembled everything and added some Stickles to the cat and enamel accents to the tree. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration.

Christmas Twofer with Paperartsy

  Hi Everyone, This week's theme is anything goes on the  Topflight blog .  I am now in major Christmas card mode. Don't expect to see much else for the next couple of weeks... I used this wonderful tree stamp before ( see HERE ) and I still have so many more ideas of what to do with it.....maybe next year.... I stamped the tree and used the stencil to color it. This makes it much easier, although by the life of me I don't know why they cut the stencil in two - would have easily fit as it is....so you might get a stencil line, which is really annoying - You can see it well in the green tree.... they could have just left two thin connectors for the center bauble spaces.... .  I stamped some baubles into the green tree and punched out some penguins for the blue tree. I also added lots of Stickles to the blue tree, although you can't see it well here. I added Crystal Lacquer to the baubles. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight
