Funky Fossil Designs New Stamp Release - Bee's Knees

Funky Fossil Designs have five fabulous new stamp sets which are being released today.

This is a sample I have made with one of the new sets called "Bee's Knees".

I used Distress Oxide Inks to make this card, starting with the Funky Fossil "Dotty Frame Stencil" in the background.

I stamped the toadstools, sentiment and bees in Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink and again used Distress Oxide Inks to colour the images.

Funky Fossil Designs New Stamp Preview May 2020 - The Bee's Knees

Funky Fossil Designs will be launching five new clear stamp sets this Sunday 10th May.

For this sample, I have used "The Bee's Knees" stamp set.

I started this card by creating a landscape using Distress Oxide Inks.  For the sky, I used "Tumbled Glass" and for the grass area I used a base of "Twisted Citron" then used "Mowed Lawn" through the Funky Fossil "Random Rectangles" stencil.

On a white piece of card, I stamped the various toadstools in Versafine "Vintage Sepia" brown ink.  I coloured them with various Distress Oxide Inks and then fussy cut the shapes.

I glued the toadstools into position and then stamped the bees using Versafine Clair "Pinecone" brown ink and then stamped the sentiment in Versafine "Vintage Sepia".  I coloured the bees using Distress Oxide "Wild Honey" ink and gave the wings a shimmer using a Sakura Gelly Roll pen.  I added some dots to create the bee flight path using a fine tip black pen.

To create the look of a meadow I painted in some grass using various shades of green Distress Oxide Inks.  I used a white Posca Pen to add some dots to give the impression of flowers growing.

Funky Fossil Designs New Stamp Preview May 2020 - The Bee's Knees

Funky Fossil Designs have five fabulous new stamp sets that will be released this coming Sunday, 10th May. 

 

I have made this sample using one of the sets called "Bee's Knees", it's such a fun set which I'm sure will be a popular choice.

For this card, I started off with a white background and covered it in blended "Antique Linen" Distress Oxide Ink. I coloured the lower half of the card using two shades of green Distress Oxide Inks:  Peeled Paint and Forest Moss.

I then stamped the daisies and the sentiment in Versafine "Vintage Sepia" ink.

I used "Rusty Hinge" Distress Oxide through the"Micro Squares" stencil in random areas.  I then used "Vintage Photo" Distress Oxide Ink through the "Micro Dot" stencil, again in random areas.

I used "Vintage Photo" Distress Oxide Ink through the "Fierce Words" stencil to add the "Wild" word.

I used Versafine Clair "Pinecone" dark brown ink to stamp the bee.  I then used the "Dotty Circle Background" stencil to create the bee flight path from one flower to the next.  I coloured the bee using Arteza Brush Pens and a Sakura Gelly Roll pen on the wings to give a gorgeous shimmer.

I coloured the petals using a white Posca Pen and used Forest Moss Distress Oxide ink to colour the leaves.
