One and Only St. Patty's Card

Because I don't celebrate St. Patrick's Day and because I don't believe in luck, I only make one St. Patrick's Day card each year and that is for one of my daughters because she loves that day.  In fact, it is probably her favorite day of the year.

I used the digital image at Doodle Pantry .  It comes in outline and pre-colored.  I used the pre-colored version and a piece of one of the digital papers.  It is called Oxalis.  Here is a photo of the whole set:

The sketch I used can be found at Tuesday Morning Sketches

The frame is made with a Spellbinder's Die. Swirl is Cheery Lane.  The 4 leaf shamrock is made of 4 hearts punched out with one of my mini punches. I thought it would be fun to put a dew drop on one of the leaves in the main image just to help "jazz" up the card a bit more.

Challenges:
Digital Tuesday - frame it
Your Next Stamp - color inspiration
Party Time Tuesday - luck of Irish
Timeless Tuesday - green
Great Impressions - green
Simon Says - green
Speedy TV - St. Patrick's Day
Clear it Out - St. Patrrick's Day
Clearly i Stamp - dies
