Here’s the project I made for the hop, an art journal page that celebrates the birthday of Topflight, 26/03. The butterflies represent the plane of their logo in spring season.

I used these 4 stamp sets that you can find at Topflight Stamps shop, which are some of my favourite. I’ve added their links below:

I used the butterfly and the flowers from ESC18. This stamp set is the one I enjoy the most using. The elements it has are so versatile and useful that I’m never tired of it.

I used the big butterfly from ESC33

I used the word CELEBRATE and some labels from ESC34. I love this set, it’s perfect for masculine cards but also for scrapbooking and to create your own ephemera. I love the frame around the man and the labels, it’s cut in pieces so you can build the biggest frame or the smallest one in the shape you want by combining the different pieces (same as you would do with the frame on ESC33 above).

And from ESC43 I used some of the labels. This is again one of my favourite stamps. I love ephemera, so this one is just a never-ending supplier of vintage labels, both full and empty.

Once I stamped all the images with Nocturne Versafine Clair ink on top of smoothy cardstock by PaperArtsy, I painted them with the Mattint paints Shark, Fern and Glow, then I cut them and aged them with Distress Vintage Photo Ink.

The papers in the back belong to my 2 books Art Journal Vol 2 and Vintage Covers Vol 2, which are meant to be cut and used as decorative papers in whichever form you like.

Here’s a short video on how I made the Art Journal page, I hope you like it

Don’t forget to comment along on this post and the rest of the blogs in the hop as well as on instagram. Thanks very much for your visit!

    Hi Raquel. You are so talented to make a monochromatic page with so much interest. Your journal is beautiful. The paper design reminds me of the inside cover of some old books I have in my office. You matched the pattern up perfectly. You have a very creative eye to use several stamps sets and mix and match them so seamlessly.  I wish I could do that. It is a great tribute to Topflight Stamps.  I like how you have the butterfly there to symbolize their plane logo.
