Mush Celebrating

 Hello again!

Happy Wednesday!


The week is flying by.  Probably because the weekend was a bust after getting my Covid and Flu shots and feeling terrible all day Saturday and just chilling on Sunday.  Then yesterday was my daughter-in-law, Helen's birthday and I took her out for brunch and birthday shopping.  Then last night the four of us went to an Irish pub for her birthday dinner and music bingo. None of us won bingo but it was a lot of fun.  Festivities ended at home with some final gifts and cookie cake.  Below is the card I made for her.  She likes mushrooms and gnomes.  Arrow, my oldest and Helen's spouse, helped me with the card concept. 


This is the first time using the Altenew Mushroom Garden layered stencil and coordinating Mushroom Greetings stamp and die set. I can only describe it as very therapeutic stenciling in all those colors! The gnome is from a set by Catherine Pooler Designs and the word die I can't remember, it was in my word die stash.  I used lots of Catherine Pooler inks and Copics on the stamped images.  I pulled the colors from the Inkspirational Mood Board challenge this week.
