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!

Hero Arts,

Hi Carol! Thank you for checking. Unfortunately the CM560 Magical Forest set has been discontinued. Although the set is no longer available on heroarts.com, you may be able to order it from other retailers. Here is one option we found with a quick search: https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/products/hero-arts-clear-stamps-magical-forest-cm560

Carol Bluethman,

Where can I buy the stamp Have a Magical Birthday? I cannot find it on Hero Arts?

Christine Kiehl,

Truly magical card you crafted with these must have dies for me! Love it!

Patricia Wilson,

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