This week we are sending some Tea Potter cheer to Ann's, aka annsforte3, brother who is facing some serious challenges fighting cancer.
This card started off to be an idyllic rural scene replete with a cottage, stone bridge and sheep because I own all those images by Mo. But they are each so different in design and style that it looked like a mess. I went looking for a different cottage and found a leprechaun instead. The Irish Wish sentiment was part of the stamp set, but I did retype it using KG Luck of the Irish font because I couldn't get my printer to colorize the digi. It's a bit hard to read for some reason, so it goes:
"All the little leprechauns in Ireland's sunny isle, couldn't bring you all the luck I'm wishing you the while. Irish Blessing".
Mike is quite proud of his Irish heritage, so I hope all the wonderful cards of green both cheer and support him through this difficult journey. I hope you are enjoying a bit of luck today as well. TLF

Awesome image for Michael. Sure to give a smile. Love the Irish blessing. Terrific background to give that texture and masculine vibe. Nicely matted in the green. Great card!

Guess it was meant to be that you found this leprechaun stamp as it is so very cute. My hubby would like your card as he is from Irish heritage, too. And, I like the pot of gold. lol Love your brick wall.

I LOVE to St Patrick's Day cards in the gallery. This is especially detailed. The bricks look totally believeable and your leprechaun is colored so beautifully. The finishing touch is the Irish blessing. I'm betting that Mike will have a big smile when he receives this.
