Jeepers - I thought I'd taken a better photo. It's arrived at its destination now, so too late for a better one! This is the inside of a birthday card. You can see the front HERE.
I used Christmas papers from BG's Aspen Frost for the sky, trees and foreground.
All the critters and the single mushroom have little acetate pop-up elements to make sure they stand up when the card is opened. I wanted the owl actually standing on top of the bench, but then she stuck out over the closed card, so it looks a little as if she's sliding down it :-(. The trees are paper pieced.
When I use this die, I have a template made by embossing half the die into a sheet of card, along where the fold-line would be. From this, you can see how to cut paper to line the card. I have a post in the Tools and Products forums which shows what I mean better than I can explain it in words - look HERE.

The inside is gorgeous!!!
In Northern Europe, toadstools (fluesopp in Norwegian) are a big deal around Christmas and I have to admit, I love them.
What about Ireland, do you use toadstool in your Christmas decorations?
