It is Thursday and time for a new Create with Stamping Friends Challenge.  This week it is a sketch challenge.

This week I am using the Terrific Toadstools bundle and the Toadstool Gardens DSP for all my projects.  It took me a bit to figure out how I was going to use the featured products with the sketch.

I used 3 different patterns from the Toadstool Gardens DSP.  This paper is so bright and cheerful and it is a Sale-A-Bration gift choice.  The DSP is 6" x 6" and there are 6 sheets of each of the 6 designs.  This  DSP definitely caught my eye and went on my order when I saw it.  It also coordinates with the Terrific Toadstool bundle in the Mini Catalog.  

Isn't it fun seeing 3 different patterns of the DSP on one card?  In retrospect i should have made the diagonal strips larger and further apart.  If I had done that it would have looked more like the sketch intended.

All the toadstools/mushrooms and the snail were fussy cut from the DSP.  The shapes are pretty easy to cut out so this wasn't very difficult to do.  Around the mushrooms I also added some sequins from the Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins (another fun Sale-A-Bration choice).   The sentiment was inked in Early Espresso ink. 

Inside I added a Basic White CS layer.  I had these strips of DSP so I used both of them to dress up the inside of the card.  I will  stamp an inside sentiment when I am ready to send out the card.  Love the "poppin' up " sentiment as it can be used for all kinds of situations.

Thank you for stopping by my blog.  Be sure to check out what the other members of the design team created for this challenge.
