Greeting Cards with punched-out Faux Leather Paper Mushrooms

1   Punch out mushrooms for hanging decorations from faux leather paper and card. Cut off the stalks and swap them to give the mushrooms a different look. Cut out small card dots and glue them onto the head of the mushrooms.

2   Place a piece of cord onto the stalk and glue two mushroom heads around the stalk and cord. Glue another two mushrooms onto the cord (each consisting of two mushrooms) and tie a knot at the end.

3   Make a pocket for the mushrooms from a 10 x 14.3 cm piece of faux leather paper and a 10 x 12 cm piece of vellum paper. Fold the vellum paper around the faux leather paper and glue it at the bottom and the back with a glue pen.

4   Glue it onto the front of the greeting card with a glue pen.

5   Stamp text on the faux leather paper.

6   Cut a small card heart and glue it on.

7   Cut two small incisions at the top of the greeting card. Insert the cord in the slots and leave the remaining cord inside the greeting card.

8   You may make a greeting card without the mushroom hanging decoration and instead decorate it with rivets and faux leather paper grass. Cut a 10 x 14.3 cm piece of card. Cut a small piece of faux leather paper for text and a piece of faux leather paper for grass. Punch out mushrooms like in step 1 and glue all the faux leather paper pieces onto the piece of card.

9   Make holes in the card using a screw punch and set the rivets with a hammer.

10   Glue the finished section onto the front of the greeting card.
