Hello Thursday!!!  Happy Valentine’s Day!!!  It’s time for a Create with Connie and Mary Challenge!  This time a FUN sketch for you to try. I know…my card isn’t for Valentine’s Day…I’ve already moved on to the next holiday!  lol!

AMAZING LIFE

I don’t really have a LOT of need for St. Patrick’s Day cards, but my oldest grandson likes to get “happy mail”!  I thought I’d make up a few for the grands this year.  Plus, I do love the “Good Luck” greeting in this Amazing Life stamp set…it’s not just for St. Patrick’s Day!  Always good to send out a little encouragement now and then.

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Whisper White cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• The Garden Green polka dot pattern in Regals 6×6 Designer Paper is cut to 2-3/4 x 5.
• The Garden Green striped pattern in Regals 6×6 DSP is cut to 1-3/4 x 4-1/4.
• A 3/8 x 3-1/2 strip of Basic Black cardstock was added across the front.
• Good Luck from Amazing Life is stamped with Memento Black on a Stitched Shapes Oval and watercolored with Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker and AquaPainter with a gradated Ombre look.  It is popped up on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The four-leaf clovers, also from Amazing Life stamp set, were stamped with Memento Black on scrap Whisper White cardstock, watercolored with Garden Green Marker and hand-cut, then added around the oval with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Three Rhinestones were colored with the Dark Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends.  (Who else wishes we had the Stampin’ Blends in EVERY color????)
