Hello there!
Another August Release project today. I call these Fairy Mushrooms, so pretty don't you think?
Fold 4 X 11 white cardstock then place
large Mushroom die on so that the top of the die overhangs the fold by about
1/4" then cut. Stamp using black and cut another full mushroom front and
glue it to the folded card. Stamp using
black and Cut 2 smaller mushroom cottages to go with the large.
After coloring all the mushrooms, glue
right mushroom top to the back of the large mushroom on the right side. Glue left mushroom to the left side of the
large mushroom stem.
Stamp using black: the frog, fence, tiny
mushrooms, snail pair, firefly, and flying fairy. Die cut then color all pieces with Copics or
favorite coloring system.
Cut a thin short piece of acetate, glue it
to the back of the large mushroom at the top, glue the firefly to the end above
where you want the frog. Use several
layers of foam tape to pop up the top of the frog but glue his feet down to the
large mushroom.
Glitter the fairy wings then glue her to
the left cottage and large cottage. Pop
up the 2 snails to the bottom between the center and left cottage.
Pop up the fence and tiny mushrooms between
center and right cottages

Make a shaped card using the Simply Elegant
Centerpiece outer die on a folded 5 1/2 X 5 3/4" card overhanging the
folded edge about 1/4" (see video).
Score the left side in the center parallel to the center fold, fold down
toward card center. Unfold and lay flat, put glue on the bottom half of front
only from score line down, when front is glued on and card is closed flat,
sides, top and bottom edges should all match.
Die cut turquoise color decorative paper 2
times using outer die, glue 1 to inside and 1 to front. Die cut decorative part of centerpiece from
silver and from lavender twice. Glue silver and lavender together off-set then
glue to card front, glue lavender to inside.
Die cut 2 Simple centerpiece pieces for the centers measuring 3
1/2" X 3 1/2". Glue 1 to the inside and pop up the other 1 on the
card front.
Stamp sentiment on white using Majestic
Violet then die cut with the large Eyelet Oval & basics to fit sentiment,
die cut a lavender mat. Die cut foam sheet to pop up inside (this will be the
card front “stop” so that card will display open). Stamp Hyacinth petals using
Majestic Violet and using Deep Purple, sponge with Majestic Violet, die cut
then shape in the mold. Add Prills to
the centers, curl under tips.
Stamp fairy, frog, mushroom cottage,
mushrooms X 2, Ivy X 2, hanging Morning Glories X 3, Morning Glory bunch X 2,
fence using Black Memento (if using alcohol inks to color), die cut then

stylist on foam. Put foam tape on backs
of formed sections to keep their shape. Add lacquer to frog and leaves. Glitter fairy wings, card front and inside,
flowers with lacquer and ultrafine clear glitter.

Psalms 119:1-3

2 Blessed are those who keep his testimonies,
who seek him with their whole heart,

but walk in his ways!

Make a card base by folding a 11 X 4 1/4" piece of white cardstock in the center (see video) then place the die of the Large Mushroom Cottage on top so that the top of the die over-hangs the fold by about 3/8” so that the fold remains. Die cut another Large Mushroom Cottage from white and glue to folded card matching bottom and sides.

Die cut all the accessory pieces then color them all (Copic Markers used here).
Glue the 3 cottages together where they meet (mushroom heads) then glue then to the card base at the large mushroom matching large mushroom edges. Glue the Morning glories so that they help stabilize the 3 cottages (part of flowers on the large head then the other end to the small heads). Glue the pot to the left side of left mushroom cottage.
Pop up the windows for the large cottage, add Wink of Stella or clear glitter pen to the windows. Double pop the frog by the door of the large cottage. Glue the snails to the top of the large cottage where it fits.
