A fun technique using an embossing folder and wax paper; find the technique here.
-Cuttlebug and accessories were used for the embossing.
-Prismacolor pencils, baby oil and paper stumps for the image colors; Gamsol technique can be found in the resources section, I use baby oil in place of Gamsol.
-Ribbon is tied first and taped to the back with clear tape.
-Art Glitter adhesive and Stampin UpÂ’s Dazzling Diamond were applied on the mushroom and bee wings.
-The two end mushrooms are cut out, edged with black marker and glued to the card.
-The bee on the yellow is cut out, edged with a black marker and mounted on two 1/8” punched cardstock layers.
-Grass is drawn freehand.
-Image panel is mounted on foam tape.
-The cute yellow button brad was a gift so I donÂ’t know who the maker is but thank you Joanne!

How happy and bright when all I can see through my skylights is grey sky. I like the assymetry of the panel with the little button brad and the mushrooms spilling over the edges.
