Hello all!!! Another Thursday is here and that means another fabulous UDI Blog Inspiration challenge!!! This week Maria has provided us with a fantastic picture of glass-blown mushrooms.
So it was a no-brainer to dig out my Funky Four set and go with it. The sketch is SC317 on SCS. I had not intended on using the tree, but once I started working on this I know that I needed something for the background to help "ground" the mushrooms. Clear as mud? The tree was colored with my Garden Green and Choc Chip markers.
The mushrooms were stamped in Concord Crush, Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango. The large ones are popped up with one dimensional and the smaller ones use two. Even more dimension is used on all the panels. The Garden Green has one layer and the Choc Chip layer has two. The sentiment, from the fabulous SAB set So Happy For You, is stamped in Choc Chip, placed on a Garden Green strip and popped up with dimensionals. Just for some texture I distressed the edges with my cutter tool.
A brass mini library clip and three brass brads finishes it off. Not sure how much you can see in the pic, but I was off center with my brad placement and so I covered those up with 1/4" circles under the brads. I think this will make a fabulous manly birthday card. The dsp I used on here is the Woodland Walk. Took me forever to order this! Not quite sure why!!
Hop on over to the UDI Blog and play along with us!!!
Happy Stamping!!!!
