I created two matching celebratory cards that feature AALL & Create stamps.
Did I mention there will be prizes?
Of course, it wouldn’t be a birthday celebration without prizes! Topflight Stamps is giving four lucky winners $50 Gift Certificates to the store. Two winners will be chosen from commenters on the blog hop and two will be chosen from commenters on the IG hop. For a chance to win, make sure to visit all the stops on the hop and leave a comment by April 1st. Winners will be announced on the Topflight Stamps blog on April 2nd. U.S.A winners only due to shipping issues. Good Luck!
Both backgrounds were created by ink smooshing distress inks onto mixed media paper and adding stamped images from the White Seal Stamp Set (AALL & Create) with the Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink pad. I then added black acrylic paint splatters and inked around the edges in coordinating distress ink.
The images (from the Letter Press & Lens & Lines AALL & Create stamp sets) were all stamped on mixed media paper, colored with Arteza Real Brush Pens, and splattered with white acrylic paint. I fussy cut the images, added silver thread behind, and layered them onto a black card stock circle. Three tiny rhinestones and label maker sentiment complete these cards.

I love what you created. The AALL & Create stamps are so detailed and collaged and you did an amazing job capturing that.
These are both absolutely fantastic my friend! WOWZA! I just love the zing/wow factor of these dynamic colors. Love seeing you creating in a somewhat different style - so fun! TFS, Autumn

Love the images and color combos! Beautiful cards!
Wow! The backgrounds you created are amazing. Bight and vivid colors and love the stamp work.
I love these vibrant cards! Great backgrounds! The typewriter reminds me of the one I got from my parents for high school graduation. I think we gave it away, but it would be fun to have and show my grandkids how we did things back in the 20th century!
Esther - I LOVE your cards!!! Such beautiful backgrounds that highlight the camera & typewriter perfectly!!
They are both fabulous, I so love how you did the backgrounds on both and the great colors you used. My hubby would love that camera, awesome coloring!
stunning cards - you have certainly perfected the ink smooshing technique!!! - gorgeous work
Beautiful cards and I love the bright colors and the background!!
Hi Esther. Your cards are so rich and vibrant. They just make me smile. I just adore the color combos you chose. I put the Lens and Lines stamp in my Wish List. Until I saw your card I didn’t know I NEEDED it:- ) I love the touch of sliver thread, and the label maker strips add to the dimension.
