Luck of the Irish


Welcome! Today I have a St. Patrick's Day card that was created using elements that I had in my leftover stash. I have been trying to better organize items in my studio so I can better find things that I can put to use.  I came across a white cs background die cut with Spellbinders A2Divine Eloquence, some shamrocks cut with the Cameo using a Silhouette file, and a printed digital sentiment from Power Poppy.  I embossed the Shamrocks with Cuttlebug EF Tiny Bubbles. I die cut the sentiment with a label die and placed it on a mat of Green CS. (I created the mat by tracing the outline of the label die and fussy cut it from the green cs.) I assembled all my found elements on a Green Card Base that matched the Shamrocks and added in some Metallic Shamrock confetti from stash.  I finished the inside of the card with an Irish Blessing printed on the computer. 
FYI-The white frame was also embossed with a Darice Floral EF but it does not show in the photo. 
Challenges:
Inspiration Station: Challenge #25 Lucky Clover. When I saw the challenge photo I was inspired to use up those die cut shamrocks but add some bubbles with embossing. 
Can You Handle the Pressure? Challenge is Anything Goes with Embossing with a Twist of Think Spring. Used EF on Shamrocks and also on Background that does not show in photo.

  3. Theresa... love the embossing on the shamrocks. The dimension really makes the card. The border is very Celtic in its own right... definitely feeling the Irish! Love the inside blessing as well. Thanks so much for joining and sharing at Just Us Girls this week!
