Mosaic Mushrooms

Hello there! Today I have a card that I admittedly made some time ago for Stampendous, but never shared on my blog. I really like the look of mushrooms, and their link to the fairy realm, so I enjoy using them in projects. This Mosaic Mushroom stamp is fun to color, and gives the look of a stencil, without it actually being one. Below is my full tutorial.

Supplies:
Stampendous:
W177- Mosaic Mushrooms
SSCM5002: House Mouse Painted Wishes
MPW811: Mixed Media White Paper
STF082- VersaFine Onyx Black Ink

Other:
Tombow Dual Brush Markers- 020, 025, 055, 062, 126, 170, 173, 195, 452, 493, 515, 603, 606, 636, 620, 703, 723, 725, 743, 800, 815, 835, 845, 847, 856, 885, 899, 933, 947, 977, 990, 993, N89, N95,
My Colors Cardstock: Fireflies, Black Magic
Bazzill: Pixie Dust


Directions:
1. Stamp the image on to Mixed Media Paper with VersaFine ink. Color using the markers listed above. Fussy cut.

2. Create the card base with Pixie Dust. Cut to 5 1/2" x 8." Make a mat of Black Magic in the size 5" x 3 1/2." Cut a smaller mat of Fireflies to 4 1/2" x 3."

3. Using a paper cutter or scissors, slice the Fireflies mat into random, angular shapes, to mimic a mosaic. As you cut the pieces, reform the original rectangle on your workspace to make it easier to complete the card later. Glue the cut pieces on to the Black Magic mat, leaving space in between each piece, and a border around the edges.

4. Using a sentiment from Painted Wishes, stamp on to one of the Fireflies pieces in the lower right corner using VersaFine.

5. Adhere the mushrooms using Zip Dry Glue off center.

I'll be back tomorrow with another project featuring the new Curio Stamps, also from Stampendous. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Christmas in July with Imagine Crafts & Stencil Girl!

Hello! Have you heard? The Imagine AIRs have been hopping with Stencil Girl! If you have been here before, you know I loooove me some stencils, so this collaboration was very exciting for me! The teams are hopping for 3 consecutive Saturdays, and this is week 2. I have the entire list of hop links at the bottom of the post. Be sure you don't miss anyone! I decided to to create an extra large gift tag with my new stencils. Using red cardstock, I taped down the Journal Texture #8 Stencil  and inked it up with Golden Glitz Delicata ink . I promise you, this is the BEST gold ink you will ever use! The Journal stamp only has 2 diamonds on it (it's a 4x4" stencil), so after I inked up the first pair, I moved over the stencil, lined it up, and inked again. Next I wanted to do something textural with the Urban Insiders Star . So I took some evergreen cardstock, taped down the star, and slathered on some yummy Iridescent Green Creative Medium . After the medium dried, I ga
