Funky Fossil New Release Preview Day 2

Hi Everyone,

it's the second day of the wonderful new release at Funky Fossil Designs.

We are introducing two sets today -

Distressed Elements and Happy Words

I really love the Distressed Elements - it is so versatile! I used white and black gesso for the side strip I created. I only used one of the stamps - the thinnest long one, dunked it into the gesso and stamped. The cute little quirky owl I am sure you remember her - she is from the last release.

You can't have too many Happy Words right now. I created a background with one of the HAPPYs - did some generational stamping. The flower is form a set you will see on Friday.

Don't forget to visit the DT and the Funky Fossil blog to see all the phenomenal cards the DT girls created.

And no release without a prize:

The full release will be a giveaway to one person who comments on any of our release day blog posts or instagram posts before midnight on April 1st with the winner announced on April 3rd

Happy Stamping!

Cool gesso stripes, Cornelia ... and a cute, bright little owl! So right about the Happies ... the more the merrier and these are deliciously graphic in the background to that lovely vibrant bloom! Hugs, Anita :)

I can really see the possibilities in both sets. Using gesso on the kraft was the perfect idea. Looks amazing with the colorful own. And repeat stamping is always a great design scheme especially with a pop of that sweet flower.

Cornelia: Awesome card! The layout and techniques are a terrific pairing to give the illusion that this little but mighty owl is winging his/her way through the night!!! Fantastic creativity! Thanks for linking to TCCC blog! Becca/DT

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes.... Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about Maddy , who was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping. This event is going on for the ENTIRE MONTH! We are demonstrating the Mirror Image Stamp which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the Mirror Image Stamp . In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the Mirror Image Stamp on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The mirror image stamp is a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful! Mirror Image stamp , Two Cats in a Tree If you want a video tutorial on how to do this I can highly recommend you watch THIS VIDEO on youtube. Explains it all in very little time! Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
