Sitting on a Toadstool

This is one of my favourite Lili of the Valley stamps, and I hadn't used it for a while, so I decided to ink it up and get colouring with my Promarkers.  After colouring, I added blobs of Frosted Lace Stickles to the spots on the toadstool.
 The papers and flowers are Dovecraft, Riverbank Revels, I just added button centres to the flowers, after layering them up.  The leafy mat was done with a Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page set using brown, pearl paper.  I inked all the edges with Tea Dye Distress Ink for extra definition.
This was the perfect card to try out my new Marianne die set, I cut the fence, birdhouse and birds from kraft card, and added Picket Fence Distress Stain to the fence and birdhouse, and Tea Dye Distress Ink to the birds.  I think this will a set that will prove to be very useful.
