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!!!
