Funky Fossil "Doodle Blooms" Card



Yesterday, I played creating a grungy, mixed media kind of background, which resulted in making this card.

I started with a piece of sand coloured card.  I tore a book page into sections and glued it on to the coloured card and left to dry.

I then spritzed it with two shades of Distress Oxide Ink Spray:  Speckled Egg and Broken China.  I left it to dry again.

I then used the Funky Fossil Designs "Musings" clear stamp set with Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" ink to stamp the letters.

I used Versafine Clair "Tulip Red" ink through the Funky Fossil Designs "Dots and Dashes stencil", circling the dashes with a red Posca Pen to add more definition to the edges of the dashes.

I die cut three seedheads using the Funky Fossil Designs "Doodle Blooms Die" in white card.

Finally, I used a sentiment from the Funky Fossil Designs "Small Print 2 stamp set", stamped in Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" ink and die cut it into a banner.

  3. I love the background Sam, so inventive, and the white die cut flowers stand out beautifully. I still don't get all you posts through Bloglovin', and haven't done for about three weeks until today...why? It's so frustrating. x
