I really enjoy creating with mushrooms and fairies, especially in the spring as nature starts to come alive!
I created these cards with the My Creative Time Mushrooms Stamps and Dies set. I used the mushroom die and snail, clouds, and the sentiment. For Card #1, I used a scalloped background die also comes from MCT. The cute little fairies are from an Art Impressions stamp set call Fairy Cubbies. I used scrap papers and an old Bitty Scrap Pad for my papers. Colored everything with various alcohol markers.

Card #2
I simply loved using the mushroom dies and snails from MCT along with the retired Daisy Garden Stamp from Stampin Up for this card. I used a Stampin up color called Calypso Coral to stamp directly on the background patterned paper. I used a patterned paper from my stash in the background as well as one for the mushroom base, and a different one for the top portion. I added a vellum oval, some foliage using dies, a piece of vellum boarder, twine, and a button! I Love these colors together so much!
If you would like to see more of how this and some other mushroom inspired cards came together, check out the video below!
