Video: Magical Mushroom Forest

Hi friends! Lydia here with a magical little fairytale forest video for you today.

I thought that these gorgeous Mushrooms and Ferns Fancy Dies would look really neat as a stencil, so I kept the piece of watercolor paper I cut them out of and used a blending brush and Wet Cement ink to create a shadow background, and then watercolored the die cuts with Daniel Smith watercolor and did a little magic trick to get them all onto the card, which you will see in the video. I finished it off with a sentiment from Magical Forest for a sweet birthday card.

Enjoy the video below or here on our YouTube channel!

Lovely, whimsical card. Loved the colors and the idea of taking all the dies and making a stencil. Thank you.
