What an interesting site Anne chose for the IC. I admit, I had this card finished but when I saw this Mini Clover Letter set I knew it was a great match. Just to be on the safe side, I'll do another one tomorrow. Wouldn't want the challenge police to ticket me for speeding, lol.
For my background, I drew a simple grid with a black sharpie, then drew over the lines with a couple of green water based markers and a blender to spread out the color. I stamped the Hatfull of Shamrocks twice, colored them with markers and cut out some of the shamrocks and attached them onto the base image for a little dimension. I cut a buckle out of a scrap of metallic gold and attached it. The white Labels 2 die cut layer was sponged w/ the green and yellow inks while the die was still in place.
The clover sprigs were also colored and cut out. I die cut three solid hearts out of a sheet of glitter foam and arranged them behind the clover sprig. The greeting was stamped twice (so I could split it), the corners rounded and then edged with markers.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.or the DRS blog.

Such a sweet St. Patrick's day card, Julie. I really love the top hat you've cut out w/those wonderful shamrocks. Hope someone really special and very irish receives this beauty!
