April Stamp Release for Eileen Hull with Maker Forte!

 Hello Stamping Fans of Eileen Hull! It is time for a new Maker Forte release. Always fun & the best thing is these stamps pretty much work together nicely. I am busy teaching so instead of one big project I will give you 3 ways to use Eileen's newest member of the family. As always there is a FB live release & blog hop. All the details are below.

 Here is my trio of projects. Make sure you check out the blog hop as there will be so much great inspiration. Remember if you miss the live you can always check out the replay. 

Let's break down my projects & see how versatile these babies are! You can use them for planners, journals, journal cards, junk journals... it goes on & on. Also very good for labels.

Idea #1: So we may have had family visit. I may have made Lemon Drop Moonshine for us to enjoy. Not really moonshine as it is not distilled but that was the name of the recipe. It was super tasty but only lasts 2-3 weeks in the fridge & then must be frozen. 

I made super simple labels for my delicious treat, with the best by date on them. Simply stamp with archival ink on a sticky back label, trim & adhere. I would have made fun tags but they are being popped in the freezer. Fun tags next time! 

Idea #2: How many of you have 1 million Project Life cards from back in the day? Well how about pulling them out & adding a little something, something like die cuts & labels? I can use these for journals, junk journals or hey even those Project Life albums. Love how these little die cuts just adds some pretty dimension. For reference the flower comes from Shadowbox Frame #1, the stem from Wreath & Snowflake & the house from Shadowbox Frame #2. See supply list below for links.

Idea #3: Adding the labels to the cover of a Full Size Journal Booklet.  These stamps are so fun as you can change the label frame & put different words in them. Now time for you to hop! Here is the link to Eileen's blog with a list of the team who are playing with the stamps this release. Lots of great inspiration to be had!

Christmas In July Project Life Card

This week on Topflight Stamps we are playing with Christmas. Yes that is right, time to start thinking of snow, snow, snow! Why you ask, in July? This is the time the stores need to put their orders in so you can get your happy snow globe stamps in the fall. I was designing this and it was 100oF- yikes, steaming Jingle Bells. 

Project Life Card with Katzelkraft

Mini Tutorial~

I participate in Project Life. At Christmas I tend to attempt to make a December Daily. Both involve making journal cards so that is what I decided to do this week. I started with a Becky Higgins card & added some stamping with Distress Ink, at the top & bottom of my card.

Christmas Tree Stamps at Topflight

Next step was to stamp and cut out the wonderful doodle Christmas trees by Katzelkraft with archival ink. Putting Distress Ink on a craft sheet & using it as paint to color the image followed. A quick swipe of color on the background along with some shimmer from A Wink Of Stella pen gave my trees a nice backdrop. I cut out the Merry Christmas and adhered it on the trees, then used pop dots to adhere. All I need is the journaling! Pop on over to the Topflight Blog to get your Christmas going & check out all the cool Christmas designs the team is doing this week.
