St. Patrick’s Day

>> Tuesday, February 16, 2021

Hi Everyone!

 I'm working on St. Patrick's day cards, and that to me is good news.  It means we're that much closer to spring!  I'm even excited about turning the clocks ahead for more daylight, so I'm counting down to that too!  In the mean time, St. Paddy's day it is!


Here I stamped the Tall Shamrocks and colored them in, adding a dot of glitter glue to the centers.  I used the new Blessings on St. Patrick's Day Greeting (372) for the sentiment, die cutting it and adding a mat.  The card was too plain for me, so I fussy cut a tiny frog and top hat, for a bit of festive fun.  Those elements came from the new stamps, Toad Made for You Recognition stamp (363D) and Top Hat St. Patrick's Day Greeting (378G). The final thing was to add some gauzy orange ribbon behind the sentiment.



This card highlights the new St. Patrick's Pot of Gold (466H), which I stamped, colored and die cut.  I attached it to a dry embossed background, along with some gold glitter paper, to highlight the loot in the pot.  There is a bit of shamrock ribbon covering the seam between the papers and I also added a fussy cut rainbow for embellishment.



The rainbow came from the Sean and the Rainbow stamp, and I finished the card with a few square shaped gems.

Wishing you lots of luck with all your stamping projects!

Cute cards, Karin. Love how you placed the froggie in/on the shamrocks and your fun sketch on card #1. On card #2, I love your embellishments - they totally set off the pot of gold as does your gold base. Great combinations of papers, images, and details on these cards. Hugz

Oh my goodness, Karin these are so fun! I really like how you put that little frog on the shamrock! Too cute! Adding that top hat was brilliant. I might have to case this card! Love the added rainbow on the second card with the new pot of gold, too. Wonderful cards!

These are terrific, Karin! Love your little frog on top of the clover & your pot of gold looks wonderful on top of all that glittery gold paper.Love the embossed bg & gold gems.

Oh my goodness Karin that little frog with the top hat is just ADORABLE!!! You made a classic card with a bit of whimsy :) I like your 2nd card too. Every pot of gold needs a rainbow - what a great idea using just the rainbow from the leprechaun stamp!
