Amazing Life St.Patrick's Day card

St.Patrick's Day is not that far away and I like to post a card

to my brother and his wife in England.

I kept it nice and simple which I know Tony will like.

St.Patrick's Day is traditionally the first spring cut for the garden,

we have our spring parade on St.Patrick's Day and it's usually

our first trip to Carlingford or Omeath of the year!!

And of course, we wear GREEN!

How I made my card:

1. Mat your card with olive green card stock.

2. Cut a whisper white mat to fit this.

3. Stamp out the 4 leaf clover stamp in olive green and then cut out

3 leaves with no stem and colour using blends.

4. Using a stem stamp (I used one from Varied Vases)

position the shamrocks along the bottom, don't stick down.

Stamp a stem to lead up to each shamrock.

5. When happy, stick the shamrocks in place.

6. Using a piece of Whisper White, draw a straight line

to line up your letters.

7. Start with the St.Patrick's Day first, leaving room above to add Happy.

8. Using old olive Stamp each letter, using the line to keep you straight.

9. Stamp the HAPPY using the first P as your centre letter,

again with a pencil line to keep you straight.

10. When dry, rub out your pencil lines.

11. Mat onto a piece of Old Olive card and add to your card.
