Funky Fossil Designs "Love &" Anniversary Card

Celebrating our anniversary today.  I used two stencils by Funky Fossil Designs and one of thier stamp sets to make this card.

I lay the aperture of the "Woodgrain Hearts" stencil over a piece of card, taping it into position.  I then lay the "Sweet Hearts" stencil over the top and applied Archival ink, using five different shades and moving the stencil with each colour so that the heart shape was almost filled with colour.

I used the Funky Fossil "Love &" stamp set to stamp the sentiments using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.

Funky Fossil Vintage Valentine Card

Are you so over the festive season?  I found it quite refreshing making this vintage style Valentine's card using an assortment of products from Funky Fossil Designs. 

I had a tidy of my desk and found a project part way through that I had forgotten about, so I decided to work with what I had and make a card.

For the background, I used the Funky Fossil "Woodgrain Heart Stencil" with Antique Linen Distress Oxide Ink. I then used the Funky Fossil " A7 Woodgrain stamp" with "Ground Espresso" Distress Oxide Ink. (The project was at this stage when I found it).

I decided to mask off the heart and used "Evergreen Bough" with a blending brush to create the green blue background.  Using the same ink, I stamped the script using the Funky Fossil "A7 Vintage Script stamp".

Around the edge of the card, I used more "Ground Espresso" Distress Oxide Ink to give it a more vintage look.  I then splattered water droplets from a fan paint brush, left them for a few seconds before lifting off the surplus water with paper towel.

Finally, I used one of the words from the Funky Fossil "MDF Positive Words set", coloured with "Tulip Red" Versafine Clair ink and adhered to the front of the card.
