August Release Day!

Hello!

Finally, our five new stamp sets are available to purchase from www.funkyfossil.co.uk :)  I hope that you have been enjoying the introduction posts this week and have seen something that appeals to you.  Four of our sets are christmas themed with Gamer being our only non-festive set in this release.  I don't usually make christmas cards this early in the year but I have to admit that I am really enjoying working with these designs and keep thinking of new ideas :)

Here are a few more makes with the new stamp sets:

The Gamer set is so much fun to use and great for all those teens/adult gamers in our lives.  I have used the set with our new Circular stencil here.

I used our Filigree Flakes and Festive Phrases stamp sets with our Snow Globe stencil which I have used as a shaker template.

I have combined our Filigree Flakes with our Snow Flurry stencil and mdf snowflake embellishments.  The panel is matted on to the new Let It Snow paper pad!

I have used one of our small round MDF plaques here with a gelli printed paper, Snow Flurry stencil, MDF Snowflake embellishment and one of the lovely Christmas Characters!

Finally, I have foiled the Elegant Ornaments with Wow Fab Foil and Bonding Powder.

Elegant or whimsical, hopefully there are stamps for all tastes here and don't forget the fab Let It Snow paper pad!

The DT have been amazing all week and have some final inspiration to share with you today.  Check them out here....

Introducing our August Stamp Release - Filigree Flakes

Hello!

I am back for the second day of our introductions to the five new stamp sets that we will be releasing on Saturday :)  Now we are going to start getting festive - even though it is July, are you ready for some snowfall??  Our Filigree Flakes stamp set features a range of elegant and delicate snowflakes - I love using them as a focal point or an accent on lots of designs.  

We also have a new paper pad to accompany our christmas stamps - Let it Snow is a contemporary range of christmas themed papers in gorgeous teals, aquas, pinks and mustards.  I really love them and hope that you will too :)

Let me share some examples:

I simply stamped a snowflake wreath in bright non-traditional christmas colours.

I melted some ultra thick embossing powder and stamped the snowflake in to it and dusted with perfect pearls to get the gold shimmer.  This was adhered to a background brayered with acrylic paints and background stencilling.

I gold heat embossed the snowflakes over some of the patterned paper and added a sentiment from another set in the release.

Here are the new products:

 

The rest of the DT have wonderful snowy inspiration to share with you today too!
