Funky Fossil Designs "Nordic Noel" New Stamp Preview

Today I am previewing another new stamp set that will be available to purchase from Funky Fossil Designs this Friday, 30th July 2021.  

The stamp set I have used on this sample is called "Nordic Noel" a beautiful set, which I am sure you will fall in love with. 

For this sample, I have used the Funky Fossil "Birch Forest Stencil" with Distress Oxide Inks (Tumbled Glass, Faded Jeans, Blueprint Sketch and Chipped Sapphire) to create the backround scene.

I have stamped the gnomes in Versafine Clair "Medieval Blue" and coloured them with Distress Oxide Inks applied with a brush (Victorian Velvet, Weathered Wood and Mowed Lawn).  I have also used touches of a gold Signo pen to various areas too.

Funky Fossil Designs January 2020 New Stamp Set Release - Quirky Owls

It's new stamp release day at Funky Fossil Designs.  For this card I have used the new clear stamp set called "Quirky Owls".

For the background, I have used "Stormy Grey" Distress Oxide Ink through the Funky Fossil "Birch Forest" stencil.  I then coloured the tree trunks and branches with a light brown coloured pencil.

I then stamped the owl in flight on top of the stencilled background and also on a separate off- cut of white card, using Versafine Clair "Acorn" brown ink.  

I coloured the image on the white card using Arteza coloured pencils and a very fine tip red felt pen for the heart, bow tie and part of the wing.  I then fussy cut the owl image and adhered over the other owl shaped image using clear foam pads.

I stamped the sentiment using Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink.

For this card, I started by using Distress Oxide Inks in two blue shades: Chipped Sapphire and Blueprint Sketch through the Funky Fossil "Birch Forest" stencil.

I trimmed the image down then adhered a curved piece of card over the lower section to create a snowscape.  I stamped the "Let It Snow" sentiment using Versafine Clair "Twilight" which is a very dark blue ink.  I added a pale blue area to the left of the sentiment, using Distress Oxide "Tumbled Glass" ink, that the penguin will stand on.

On a separate piece of card, I stamped two images of the penguin.  I coloured the penguin by painting Distress Oxide inks on the hat area of both penguin images.  For the body on one of them I used my Arteza Brush Pens.

I cut out the full image of the coloured penguin and adhered into position over the blue paint washed area on the snow.

I then cut the had around the hat on the second penquin image and adhered it over the hat on the card to give dimension to it.  I added touches of glitter to the hat using a Sakura gelly roll pen.

Gothic Grave Yard Halloween Card (Fuky Fossil Stencils and MDF shapes)

Another Halloween make, this one is a bit less in your face. I don't think I have ever made so many Halloween items in one year!

For this card I have used two stencils by Funky Fossil.  The first is the "Birch Forest" where I used a Distress Oxide Ink in the shade of "Faded Jeans" to create the background colour.

The second stencil was the "Gothic Grave Yard" where I used Distress Ink in the shade of "Black Soot" to create the image at the base of the card.

I used a couple of bat shapes from the Funky Fossil MDF bag of shapes called "Spooky Elements" and covered them with a black Sharpie pen.
