Funky Fossil May Release - Furry Friends

Hello!

I hope that your week is going well :)  We are back for a third day of introducing the five new stamp sets which will be released on Sunday, 10 May in store and on Hochanda.  Today it is the turn of Furry Friends which is another stamp set featuring adorable designs by the talented Donna Gray.  These cute canines are packed full of character!

Here are a few cards that I have put together:

A sweet and simple card featuring this fab pup with one of the punny sentiments from the set.

This sausage dog is just so fun!  I stamped him out repeatedly on the card base and added a coloured one as the focal point.

Here is another of the characters from the set.  I think that she looks fur-bulous :)  I created a stencilled background using the Grid and In the Clouds stencils and pawprints on the cardbase.

These dogs have so many possibilities and will make really distinctive and quirky designs!  Check out what Jane, Sam and Natalie have made with them :)

We will be back tomorrow with set number four!

Funky Fossil May Release - Scandi Garden

Hello!

We are back for the second day of introductions to the five new stamp sets that we will be releasing on Sunday, 10 May both in store and on our two Hochanda shows :)  Today we are introducing Scandi Garden which is a partner set to our Scandi Home set.  The stamps mix and match perfectly together and feature really distinctive artwork.

Here are a few examples:

I simply blended some distress oxide on the card panel and added some subtle stencil detail with the Dotty Circle Background before stamping and clear embossing the image and sentiment.  I love the stylised flowers sprouting out of the watering can!.  I simply added the grid stencil at the bottom of the card.

The set also includes stamps which are perfect for pattern building.  I have used them below to create a tiled effect.

This set has so much potential....I am looking forward to making a lot more cards with it!  Here it is:

Check out the wonderful designs that Jane, Natalie and Sam have made with it too.  I hope to see you back here tomorrow when we will have the third set to share and it is another one featuring designs by Donna Gray :)

More CAS cards

Hello!

I have been having fun this week playing with some of our new stencil designs which are now available in store at www.funkyfossil.co.uk.  There are designs to suit male or female cards, CAS cardmakers and mixed media fans!  Here are a few that I have made which are more CAS.

First up is this lovely bold Protea bloom.  It is a quick way to make a card front - add a sentiment and your done! 

I simply inked the flower with distress oxides and added some splatters.  I shall link up at Simon's Monday Challenge where there is a Floral Frenzy. 

Next up is our new Grid Stencil and Micro Squares.  These are fab for adding layers and interest to cards - particularly male designs. 

I simply inked through the grid in pale blue and green, fading out from the centre and stamped the image from our Adventure stamp set over the top.  I love the way that the grid is showing through the stamped image!  I did also use the micro squares as part of the fade out but they are hard to see on this picture.....

I shall link up at Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge where the theme is positive.  I think that the Adventure set has a really positive vibe!

I inked through the grid and the micro squares on this card front varying the colour and fading towards the card centre before adding some stamped elements from the Adventure set again.  

I hope you like these new stencils....

 

 

Thanks for stopping by,
