A St. Patrick's Day Wish

 Hello Stampers, 

I am here today to share a St. Patrick's Day wish. Isn't this a sweet saying? I also love the dancing leprechaun that is filling up the gold cauldron. The truth is, I messed up the bottom of the card, so I cut it off and put a flower print piece of paper there. I colored the gold coins, buttons on his jacket, and buckles with a gold pen.

St. Patrick's Day Card With A Sale

Hello Friends,

This is Bailey. She is helping me wish you a pot of gold and joy for your heart.

It's a pretty simple card, stamp, and color. But I did have some ribbon that had small gold circles on a mesh that I think I got at Dollar Tree. I used it because it looks like small gold pieces.

St. Patrick's Day and Easter Artist Trading Cards

Hello Stamper,

I made a couple of Artist Trading Card also known as ATC's. Did you use to make ATC's and trade them? They are 3.5 x 2.5 and are perfect to put in a pocket, or purse to hand out, leave with your tip to a good waiter, waitress, or co-worker or add to a card.

The first ATC is for St. Patrick's Day. I know that is tomorrow, so Happy St. Patrick's Day! I made a couple of these and already handed some out to a couple of cashiers. They were surprised and happy to get it. I used May Your Blessings saying and Shamrock Solid Sm. and the Shamrock Open. It is mounted on green card stock.

I am getting some Easter ATC's ready to hand out. I used the Bunny Hugs saying at an angle and also the Bunny Hug image. Check out our Easter stamps. 

Just a little coloring and it's done!

Thanks for stopping by,

Vicky

St. Pat's Beer

Hi, Vicky here today. Well on to St. Pat's Day.

Valentine's Day is over so on to another fun occasion. Do you wear one of those buttons: Kiss Me I'm Irish? Or pinch someone who is wearing orange? OH I remember green beer many, many years ago.

Well, to the card. I sponged the background with brown ink on tan card stock. The saying is on our Poster. I did stamp it on darker tan c/s and then again on light c/s. I cut out the light and put it on the darker c/s so it looks like paper on the board. And sponged a little brown around the edges.

Colored the happy leprechaun with Copic markers, (but I didn't make the beer green).  

 

Friendly Crackerbox Hugs, Vicky

St. Pat's Slainte

I used Crackebox Palace stamps.

I stamped the outline shamrock with Brilliance ink for the background on light tan textured card stock.

I layered it on textured dark green card stock. I used the same color of dark green for the biggest frame.

I cut all the frames with Spellbinder and stamped our saying on the same card stock I used for the card.

I stamped the image on white card stock and colored it with Copic markers. I used the Copic glitter markers for the beer, I almost made the beer green.

I made this at my dad's but if I would of made this at home, I would of used liquid applique for the beer foam.

Hope you enjoyed the card, and hope you enjoy St. Pat's Day!

St. Patrick's Day Wish

I am sorry it has taken so long to get back to my postings.

I know I have told you before, that I was living with my parents to take care of them until they left this life to journey on to the next one. My father just passed a couple of weeks ago and it has been a little hard for me. I will try to keep up with new ideas in between finishing up their affairs and getting my house in order since my husband was left to fend for himself the last 14 months.

I was able to make a few cards before dad passed away and this is one of them. I didn't have a lot of my 'stuff' at his house so the next few cards will be considered quick and easy.

I stamped the saying on light tan card stock and cut it out with Spellbinder. I left the die on and brushed light brown in around it.

I stamped the saying and shamrocks in green Brilliance ink. I also used the same ink to brush around the edges. I used Copic markers for coloring. Mounted the card on brown and then black card stock.

Reason for Drinking

I was thinking of making a guy card for St. Patrick's Day and this stamp came to mind.

I used the Poster on Wood stamp. I stamped it twice, once on dark brown and then on lighter tan. I cut out the center and sponged on brown ink around the edges and glued it on the darker brown.

I used the same brown ink around the edges of the card.

The 3 merry men are stamped on white card stock, colored with Copic markers and then cut out. I used pop dots behind them so they would stand out.

Full of Luck

St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner. So I made a quick and easy St. Patrick's Day card. 

I can't believe how fast this year is going.

I used a Cuttlebug folder on the white background piece of cs. I didn't put the cs all the way into the folder, about 1" was hanging out the end so the top wouldn't be embossed. I cut a piece of printed paper for the band across the top.  I stamped and embossed the saying and stamped the shamrocks in the corners.  I cut out the saying with Spellbinder Mega Curved Rectangle.  I stamped and embossed the horse shoe on silver mirrored cs and cut it out.  I layed it on the white cs and penciled the inside of the horse shoe, I stamped the shamrocks with Brillance Thyme ink and erased the pencil line. I cut out the shape of the white cs with Spellbinder Label 11 and glued the horse shoe on. I then cut out a gree mat.
