Mushroom Background


 

This is for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge to create your own background and for the Wednesday design challenge, found HERE.

My background uses Picket Fence Studios "Mushrooms Aplenty" and Lawn Fawn sentiments from "To My Fungi". Embellishments are from  Little Things from Lucy's Cards.

Seahorse Floral





I've always found seahorses fascinating. This "Seahorse Floral" hot glimmer foil set from Spellbinders (retired) was foiled in "Aura" which may be my favorite, capturing light and reflection so prismatically. I colored these with my new Castle Arts pastel pencils, these are just a meh for me. Prismacolors have me spoiled. Also used on these cards was the Castaway 3D embossing folder and Fancy Rectangles dies.

 Summertime! Amalfi Breeze dies by Spellbinders I added a little skirt using the towel fringe die and some gems down the front. The papers are retired Stampin' U! abd the sentiment is Spellbinders "Escape The Ordinary" embossed in gold.

Hello Sunshine



 Welcoming summer with these cards from the Spellbinders Weekender 2025 kit. The top one is a die from the "Under The Sun" set along with the La Dolce Vita banner sentiment. The paper has been here in my collection for years waiting for me to use it.

The second card uses the Villa Tiles 3 piece stencil set along with "Escape The Ordinary" sentiment and "Beyond The Door" dies. Most of theitems from this kit are now available for individual purchase. I can only say that I have been having a great time mixing and matching everything.
