Happy Shamrock

Good Morning!

Today's card will be entered into the Challenges at Cheery Lynn, Doilies, Double D, Feeling Green, and Dies R Us, Shaped Cards.

 

Well it is March and I do need a St. Paddy's card.....love when Challenges collide!  :)  I cut out the Shamrocks with my Cameo--how easy this makes my life!  I then layered the Green textured card stock on the White card base, adhering both pieces to create my card.  I topped it with a pretty doily, it almost gives it a Celtic look and feel.  Then using the same Green textured card stock I cut a Fanciful Flourish by Cheery Lynn.  Whipped out my Spellbinders Hearts dies and cut out 8 hearts, 4 in each color and in 2 different sizes, this created another Shamrock / 4-Leaf Clover.  I used a Zot to attach it to the card base.  A Zot is a THICK Glue Dot, very strong, very sticky, and because of it's thickness, gives this more dimension.  I also folded the 'hearts' a bit to add even more depth.  Topped with a lone Adhesive Rhinestone.  The sentiment is from Fairy Tales by Gina K Designs, stamped on a hand cut flag banner.

 

May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!

 

Enjoy~~

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 





Summer Schedules......

Good Morning!  Wow it certainly has been a very long time since I checked in.  My work schedule picks up so much in the summer, I hardly have time to craft, let alone time to chat about crafting.  But, the day after Labor Day is right around the corner.......right???  lol

This Clean And Simple card was made for the CASology Week #48 Yellow Challenge.  I enjoy participating in these Challenges as CAS cards are quite difficult for me to make.  Sometimes I begin making a card and only realize too late that it already has 17 layers and will not qualify as a CAS card.  So, this site is VERY helpful to me.   Be sure to check out their Challenges, especially if you are interested in trying to master this style of card.  Good Luck!

This card uses Gina K Designs Products;  Pure Luxury Card Stock, Sweet Corn and White.  Stamp Sets;  A Year Of Flowers 2, sentiment from Fairy Tales.

Inks;  Memento Tuxedo Black, Stampin' Up! More Mustard.  Sakura Glitter Pen and Pop Dots.

Thanks for being patient and checking back in with me.  I have a few days off so I am hoping to post a few more cards this weekend.

Enjoy your day, and thanks for stopping by!
