Update: the winner from my blog is #2 FitWarrior. Thanks to everyone who participated!
Hi friends! It's
Topflight Stamps 4th birthday and to celebrate, I’ve teamed up with
some great designers to showcase birthday cards using the unique
products available at Topflight Stamps. Please hop along with us and see
all the beautiful talent from this group of amazing designers! The full list can be found below. For my addition to the hop, I've created a vibrant, uplifting card with several stamp sets designed by Tracy Scott for PaperArtsy. I love Tracy's designs and have used Fresco Finish Chalk Acrylic Paints to make them pop!
I created some blue backgrounds using my Gel Press with Waterfall and Jade Frescos and THIS stencil by Tracy (PS210). I cut them down to make two 5x7" cards. I then stamped the feather from stamp set ETS43 using my stamp platform. I painted the image with Frescos, then restamped to add the detail back to the image.
To add dimension, I stamped the flower from stamp set TS047 and the bee from TS027 onto gel printed paper I made with the coordinating Fresco paint colors. I mounted them over the feather and embossed a sentiment in white to finish the designs.
I am addicted to using my Gel Press printing plate and Frescos! I hope this card has inspired you to create a stash of birthday greetings today.

Hi Autumn, Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful card, lovely colors. I always forget that you can use the stamp platform for additional benefits....thanks for the reminder.
Great bold coloring and beautiful background. Love the flowers and feather along with the big bee. So pretty!!
That pink really pops out from the blue background - wonderful! From Laura P, in case it shows up as unknown
Such a bright, festive card! Definitely makes me want to get playing with my gel press!
This is such a happy bright card.
What a vibrant and fun card! Just gorgeous!
I love everything about this card.
Love, love, love the stamps you used on your card! The colors are wonderful.
Wow! What a beautiful card. Love the bold colors!
Cool card. I am just beginning to explore all the different ways to use my gel press. Thanks.
This is my first visit to your blog, and I'm now a subscriber. I love your mixed media and the stamps you've chosen! Beautiful work!

A re-stamp after painting? A brave move with outstanding results! I'll have to try this for myself ☺. The layered pieces and bold colors work together perfectly. Nicely done!
wow your card is stunning. Love the color combo.. perfection
What gorgeous bright colors! This is like a color infusion of happiness! I love how you added the bee image on top of the fanciful floral/feather! This is fantastic!
I LOVE that used the chalk paint to color in the feather and flowers. Love the bright, distressed look it gives the image. Well done ~ you're the BOMB girl!!! Always come away with something when I see your creations. #gifted #blessed #thatisyou
Wow! Autumn! LOVE your use of color! Thanks as always for sharing your beautiful art!
Wow, how creative you are in layering stamps. Love the design and colors you came up with! Been a long time fan, you didn’t disappoint!
Love all the gorgeous colors!!! Beautiful card...as always! Thanks for posting Autumn!
Lovely cards with beautiful designs and colors!
You can't beat a gel print background with fresco paints teamed up with paper artsy stamps...your takes are always glorious!
Both cards are absolutely gorgeous. I love the combination of stamps you used, the color palette, and the design.
I never would have though to use the base of my platform to keep the stamp in place while painting. Great upcycling of the jar lid too!
Bright and happy
love the way the bee looks like its coming off the page
I love everything about these 2 cards! I think I'm going to have to finally get a gel plate after seeing this!
Gorgeous card! I love the bold and bright colors. I'm Fonda R. using my wife's computer.
Awesomeness at it's best! So happy xx
Beautiful cards! Especially love the flowers/stamps
What a gorgeous card - colors are so awesome!
lovely colourful card.
My gosh, the way you colored the images looks AWESOME. Each part stands out beautifully. I LOVE this look.
fabulous love all the colors!!!
stunning cards - LOVE the vibrant colors you have used
So very bright and beautiful! This is the kind of card that makes someone happy the moment they are it.
Until I saw your posting today, I can say I "have been to Hawaii!" - your use of those vivid tropical colors make me think what it must be like there - Bora Bora, Tahiti (?)- or another warm place! And those wings on the bee really do look possible because your gel-printed paper resembles the way insect's wings have that "rainbow effect" when the light hits them in the right way! I must remember that when I'm stamping insects! Quick card but obviously you put a lot of thinking into it before you started "arting" !!!
Love the bright colors!
Fabulous cards!! Thank you for sharing!
Nice combinations. I like the coloring.
Awesome cards! Love the bright colors!! 🤩
Wow!! Your cards are gorgeous!! Am new to this Fresco painting but these are very convincing in the need to get some!! Stunning!!
Beautiful work!
After looking at the designs in the heading, I was surprised to see the brightly colored card. I was impressed with the detailed coloring of the the bee and flowers. You created a beautiful card.
Your cards are so bright and happy, lovely images for spring!
Feathers always get me drooling but with the flowers tucked into one side of it, that's just puts me out of my mind. Great coloring for TopFlights birthday celebration!
Love these gorgeous cards and the beautiful and bright colors you used! So very gorgeous!
