Anyway, in honor of the holiday, I have a card to share. I used green and yellow Core'dinations cardstock for the base. I was given a set of Studio G St. Patty's Day stamps last year that I used here. I lightly stamped shamrocks on the yellow cardstock and used a sentiment from the set at the top of the card. Another sentiment was stamped on the tag using VersaFine black ink. Green and yellow ribbon was tied around the card into a bow. I layered a cluster of flowers together and attached it with a Crate Paper brad. The butterfly is Prima and the rhinestones are a combination of Recollections and Queen & Co.
I found this sweet little Boyds Bear while lunching at my favorite smorgasbord, Shady Maple (they also have a huge gift shop). When I saw that we shared the same last name that was on his tag, Shamrock O'Malley, I had to bring him home with me!
I am going to sit back now with a cup of Irish Breakfast Tea, some delicious Irish soda bread, and watch "The Quiet Man." Wishing everyone a wonderful St. Patty's Day! Be safe!
very pretty, pat! love the colors combination.
ReplyDeletePretty card, Patty! So perfect for St. Patty's. I am so addicted to butterflies lately, so of course I just adore this. Love the green tag and your layered flower and bow are so adorable, too. Your new Shamrock O'Malley bear is SO cute!
