Luck of The Irish


Hi everyone.  I am here with a very fun card.  It did take me a long time to do because I don't own any appropriate cuts.  So there I was making many, many tiny hearts to glue them together and hand cutting the stems.  It was so worth it.  I just love how it turned out.  I picked up the idea from when I was searching thru Bing.  While looking thru the different  pictures I saw this idea and did something similar.  I used Create A Critter cart. for the hat rounding the corners with a Fiskers punch and the sentiment..  I just received the ribbon from Cropstop where I won a $10.00 voucher.  From my stash I used  the shamrock and pot of gold embellies which I bought just for this kind of project, with a gift card I won from Michaels.  I also used some flowers from my stash.  I decided to put some glossy accents on a few of the shamrocks and pop-dotted them for dimension. I got the idea from a fellow blogger.  I'm sorry I am unable to remember right now, who.  The weather here in NY is still gloomy.  It's suppose to continue thru the weekend. I hope many of you have clearer and sunny skies.
