AAA Birthday Challenge

Hello!

We are already in to August....it has been such a topsy turvy year that I am losing track of time :)  However, a new month brings a new AAA Birthday Challenge and this month we have a Tic Tac Toe challenge to get you inspired:

I have gone for the top line - Bright, Embossing and Masculine to make this card:

I have used our new Gamer Stamp set - heat embossing the headphones, along with our Distressed Elements stamps and Splatters stencil.  I went with a colour scheme of Twisted Citron, Squeezed Lemonade and Mermaid Lagoon to keep the card zingy!

Which of the rows will you go for to create your birthday card this month?

Thank you for stopping by,

2020 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!

Hello and Welcome!

It is time for the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop and Funky Fossil is delighted to be one of the sponsors again :)  

We have a £20 credit to the store on offer AND to celebrate this fab hop there is 15% off everything in store this week, until 29 May, when you use the code FOSSIL15 at checkout :)

I have made a couple of  coffee cards using our stencils and stamps to share with you:

Here I have used our coffee cup aperture stencil and inked up the new Boho Background stencil to create a wrap.  I masked the cup and added leaves from our In the Tropics stencil too.  A bit of pencil shading adds definition :)

For my second card I have used our new Caffeine Buzz stencil with our Splatters stencil.  A bit of texture from corrugated card and a sentiment from In the Meadow.

I hope you like my cards and enjoy hopping along with us!

Day of the Month Card Club

Hello!

Day of the Month Card Club is celebrating its first birthday!  I love the idea behind the challenge and this month the theme is National Puppy Day so lots of opportunities to feature adorable furry friends on our card designs!  

Funky Fossil is one of the sponsors celebrating the challenge's first birthday and this is the card that I made to play along:

Of course, I had to use our Pugs and Hugs set for this challenge!  I coloured him in polychromos and added our Splatter stencil in the background of this CAS design.

I hope that you like it and take time to play along at Day of the Month.  The challenge is open until 31 March so there is plenty of time to get involved and win a prize!

Here are the products that I used to make this card:

2019 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!

Hello!

I am super excited to be one of the sponsors for the ever awesome Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - so many fab crafters and companies getting together :)

I have £15 credit to giveaway to spend in store at Funky Fossil :)  

Also to celebrate all of the lovely crafters who join in this blog hop event, there is a 15% discount on everything in my store when you use the code COFFEE15 at checkout for the duration of the hop.  If you haven't visited Funky Fossil before it would be great if you could check out the large range of stencils and stamps that we have to offer!

I have made a couple of cards with the cute Pug from our Pugs and Hugs stamp set and Coffee Bean Background stencil:

Here our pug is nestled in a teacup and I went with a pink coffee bean background!  These illustrations are by Kimma Parish from Le Petite Market.

Here I layered up the coffee bean stencil in shades of brown at the bottom of the card.  Stamped the put and then masked him before using our Splatters stencil.  He is coloured with pencils.  The fab sentiment is from Altenew.

I hope you like these fun designs.  Please leave a comment to be in with a chance of winning £15 credit to use at Funky Fossil!

Enjoy the rest of your hopping,
