I send cards out for all the holidays, I mean I a cardmaker aren't I. One of my favorite holidays to make cards for is St.Patrick's day. I mean it does feature the most beautiful color in the world- GREEN!! Also, I do know quite a few Irish folk- including my own DH, George.
Over the years I have collected quite a few St. Patty's stamps. This year I was ready for some new stamps. I headed over to Laura's Loft and picked up some new stamps. Let me show you what I came up with.
I was really thinking outside the box here. I started with My Favorite Things- Abstract Art.
I stamped it using a the
distress ink minis, kits #15, #2, #13, and #14- lucky clover, mowed lawn, cracked pistachio and twisted citron.
The sentiment and shamrocks were from
Newton's Nook- Simply Seasonal and were black embossed. I thought outside the box on this one huh?
My second card shows how you can use those tiny little stamps that often come in sentiment stamp sets. Again I used
Newton's Nook- Simply Seasonal. I took the wee shamrock in the set and created a fun shamrock wreath.
I traced a circle lightly with a pencil to use as a guide and just stamped my shamrocks around the circle using the distress mins again- kits #15, #2 and #14. Lucky clover, mowed lawn and twisted citron. I stamped the saying in black, added a ribbon and bling and voila there you have it.
