52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge
Saturday, 25th January 2020 is an exciting day at Funky Fossil Designs, as today is release day for five fabulous new clear stamp sets.
For this card, I have used the brand new set called "Scandi Home" and I absolutely love it!
I've used several of the stamps from this set, stamped in Versafine Clair "Chianti", a deep dark red ink on cream coloured card. I stamped the teapot first, then the "Home" word followed by the remaining designs, finally adding the hearts to the corners.
It's Saturday 25th January which is lauch day for five fabulous new clear stamp sets from Funky Fossil Designs. For this card, I have used the new "Blooming Birthday" set.
I started by creating the background using the Funky Fossil "Petal Burst" stencil in a different way to how I would usually use it.
I lay the stencil on a piece of plain copy paper and lightly ran an assortement of Distress Ink colours over the surface of the stencil. I then spritzed the inks and lay a piece of card over the inked stencil. The soft fragmented image transfers to the card.
I stamped half of the "Blooming Birthday" flower garland in Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink. I then stamped the flower heads in a purple colour on plain white card, coloured with felt pens then fussy cut and adhered into position.
I stamped the sentiment using Versafine Clair "Fantasia" purple ink.
Funky Fossil Designs are releasing five new clear stamp sets on Saturday 25th January 2020. I've made this card using one of their new sets called "Scandi Home" which has a real folk art feel.
I've gone for a Clean and Simple look for this card. I stamped the house and the sentiment using Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" ink and the tree/leaf in Versafine Clair "Verdant" green ink.
I've had a further play with this Funky Fossil Designs new clear stamp set. This set is called "Serenity" and will be available to purchase from thier web site at 9am on Saturday 25th January 2020.
I covered a piece of white card with "Blueprint Sketch" Distress Oxide Ink, applied with a blending tool.
I then lay the Funky Fossil "Starburst" Stencil over the prepared background, secured with some low tack masking tape. I then used Versafine Clair "Fantasia" purple ink, through the stencil, applied with a finger tip blender.
Using the same purple ink, I stamped the meditation figure and sentiment.
It is time for another challenge theme on the "My Time To Craft Challenge Blog". Challenge #412 is "Christmas Flowers". If you have a moment to spare, please do pop over to the blog and take a look at the fabulous makes by my Design Team colleagues and maybe enter the challenge yourself.
For my card, I used a cream card base and stamped the Hobby Arts Ltd "The Holly & The Ivy - SC137D" in Versafine "Olympia Green" and the sentiment in Versafine Clair "Chianti" dark red shade of ink.
I coloured the card by painting Distress Oxide Inks, using the following shades: Shabby Shutters, Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint, Pine Needles, Lucky Clover, Antique Linen, Barn Door and Aged Mahogany.
For the 3D flowers I used layers of some Bazzill Basics paper flowers, curving the leaves and using a silicon glue to provide dimension.
Finally, I added some sprarkle by using some Lavinia Stamps Hollographic Moon Dust, which is quite a chunky glitter but gives a lovely sparkle.
