I’m continuing to have fun with products from the Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog, coming soon. For today’s card, I cut toadstools from the Cute As A Bug Designer Paper with Sweet Bugs Dies, and layered them on cardstock for thickness. Then, I used Sweet Bugs Dies to cut greenery from Season Of Elegance Designer Paper.
Toadstools
For the background, I used the second largest Textured Notes Die to cut Basic Beige Cardstock.This was glued to Cute As A Bug Designer Paper, 5 3/8″ X 4 1/8″, glued to an Old Olive card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Once the background was glued, I attached the toadstools and greenery with a combination of Dimensionals. and glue.
The sentiment, “You make me smile,” is from a Last Chance stamp set, Happy Hibiscus. After stamping it in Old Olive Ink on Basic Beige Cardstock, I used a Textured Notes Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. Last, but not least, I cut three snails from Crumb Cake Cardstock, using a Sweet Bugs Die. This die cuts tiny butterflies and dragonflies also. Don’t you love it?
I was inspired by TGIF.
