The CAS challenge today is to layer 2 different shapes on our cards. I used a heart shape and a square. I've seen a lot of shamrocks made using a heart punch, and as I needed a St Patrick's Day card I thought this was the perfect opportunity to try it myself!
The card is for the bar staff at our local Irish pub who are just fabulous (and pour the best pint of Guinness outside of Dublin) and I will also be giving them some cupcakes with iced shamrocks on the top. A year ago they coped with 150 of us in a marquee in the pub garden where hubby and I had our wedding party - and they're still talking to us!!
Thanks for popping by to peek!

Great card Sally, I love how you've made those shamrocks out of the Full Heart Punch I've made a Good Luck card with a four leaf clover out of a heart stamp set before, so this could easily be adapted to use this punch too!
Just love it!
Bye for now,
Alex
