Grungy Fungi Stitched Card for Spellbinders

Hello friends, I have some grungy fungi for you today, haha. This card was created for Spellbinders and features the September Stitching Die of the Month Club selection, "Enchanted Stitched Mushrooms". Enchanted, they are! I absolutely love these dies and I went for more of a grungy theme by enhancing my die cuts with Ranger distress ink. Scroll down for details. You'll also find product links at the end of this post.

This stitching die set includes dies to make 2 different sizes of mushrooms, a leafy stem die and two sentiment dies. 






Since I knew I wanted to go with a grungy theme, I started by trimming dark brown cardstock to back my card panel that was blended all around the edges with Ranger Ink Ground Espresso distress ink. My panel was cut using my Platinum 6 die cut system and another die from my stash; the Diamond Argyle Etched Dies from the Stitchmas Christmas collection.





Next, I ink blended all of my mushroom elements around the edges with the exception of the white outline that is backed behind the mushroom top.





For my stitching, I used 2 strands for each element of  DMC embroidery floss #543; a light beige or off white color. Spellbinders has a 5 pk bundle of neutral DMC floss that would work really well!





The papers that I used are from a variety of brands and just colors that I picked from my stash that I thought would coordinate well for what I had in mind. I also hand trimmed and tore some paper for a sloped hill effect near the bottom of my card.

I cut several layers of cardstock for my die cut sentiment in dark brown. For the top layer, I cut the word with a leftover piece of white cardstock and just blended a little ink on top with the leftover ink on my blender brush. I kept it light so it would pop and coordinate next to that dark brown cardstock.

To further embellish my mushrooms, I added  tiny dots of my Pops of Color liquid embellishment called Chocolate Kiss.




If you'll notice the smaller mushroom, I glued on some of the circular cuts that were leftover bits from my die cut brown mushroom.

  1. Cute card, but the big mushrooms look odd with the stem behind the cap.
