Funky Fossil New Stamp Set "Birdsong" Preview

It is Day 2 of sharing with you another fabulous new clear stamp set from Funky Fossil Designs.  This set is called "Birdsong" and is definitely already a favourite of mine. 

I was really happy with the clean design of this card.  For the background, I used the Funky Fossil "Swallows" stencil. I then die cut a circle in a piece of card and lay the outer area of the die cut over the "Swallow" stencil and filled the area with "Mermaid Lagoon" Distress Oxide Ink. after removing both stencils, it left me with a lovely circular image of the birds.

I stamped the bird on to the card using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.  I then stamped the same image on to a small piece of card using the same ink and coated the stamped image with Wow! Clear Embossing Powder and heat set.

I painted the bird with a selection of Distress Oxide inks, cut out the image and then adhered it on to the card base/
