More Mushrooms

Today is the last day of the fun Eileen Hull Sizzix dies and Stampendous Mushrooms hop.

Today I have made a fun mushroom pencil holder for my project.

To create the canister base I started by stenciling the Large Scales Stencil on the die cut panels with Regular embossing paste.

I used my paper piercer to score the paste on the scored lines.

I covered the wet paste with embossing powder and shook the excess back into the bottle.

Then I heated it until it melted.

I repeated this process on the bottom of the mushroom that I die cut out of cardstock.

I die cut the top part of the Cottage Home mushroom out of white cardstock and stamped the details on to it.

I folded the panels and adhered the edges to create the canister.

After I colored everything I adhered it to the canister.

Now it sits on my craft table with my colored pencils in it!

And...there are prizes!!!

Playing with Sizzix

Welcome to the first day of the week long hop that the Stampendous team is doing with Eileen Hull Sizzix Dies!

These canister and box dies are the perfect base with the Mushroom home stamps and dies.

To create this fun canister I started by decorating the die cut canister pieces.

I stamped the images with memento black ink and colored with colored pencils.

I folded on the score lines and created the canister.

I sponged Antique Linen Distress ink on the canister.

Then I die cut the two pieces of my Mushroom house and decorated it.

I adhered the pieces to my canister.

I decided that this is the perfect size to leave on my craft table to put my reading glasses in because I am constantly looking for these dang things!

You can see lots more great ideas with these mushroom stamp and die sets on this video!

And of course, as with most hops...we have prizes!
