Topflight Stamps Birthday Blog Hop!




Welcome!

It is Topflight Stamps 2nd birthday! To celebrate, we’ve teamed up with up some of our favorite crafters to bring you a blog hop showcasing some of the fabulous products available from Topflight Stamps. Please hop along with us all and show all of the crafters some love!

For today's card, I'm using the Wild Poppy stamp set by IndigoBlu and the Darkroon Door Boxes 3 Up Stencil.


I used a rainbow assortment of Distress Oxide ink colors and a blending tool, and created the rainbow card panel.

I then stamped the images from the stamp set on top of the rainbow panel and then colored the areas that overlapped with the oxide inks with the coordinating copic marker colors. This technique really made the floral images pop off the page!



I finished off the card by stamping a sentiment banner from the Brutus Monroe Botanical Banner stamp set, cut it out and then mounted it on the panel with foam tape. I glued the panel on to a cut and scored 4.25 x 5.5 inch card base and called it good!

Now, of course, it wouldn’t be a birthday celebration without prizes! Topflight Stamps is giving one lucky winner a $50 Gift Certificate, and each stop on the hop has an additional $15 Gift Certificate up for grabs. To be in with a chance to win, make sure to visit every stop on the hop and leave a comment by April 8th. Winners will be announced on the Topflight Stamps blog on April 9th. Good Luck!

  2. Classy card that could be used for so many occasions by just changing the sentiment. And I know what DOK is, so I know you are a giving, loving person.
