Card Making Process: All About the Green!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  I don't believe there is any Irish predominantly in my background, but I always enjoy making at least one or two cards for this day.

This one I made for the hubs, who I feel so lucky and blessed to have in my life:

My second card is "green" -- not necessarily for St. Patrick's Day -- but from an sample I saw in Cardmaker magazine, I thought it would be a good opportunity to use more scraps!

To send you off today -- a little Irish blessing:

As you slide down the banister of life,

may the splinters never point in the wrong direction.

Have a great day!

Now on to the project!  I am the fifth stop on your Easter Hoppin' Blog hop today (Saturday) with a easy to make Easter card!

Paper:  SEI (Chocolat)  Bling:  My Mind's Eye (Lush)

I layered the butterfly in the right hand corner for more dimension and just typeset the scripture verse in Microsoft Word.  Designing your own "digital stamp" is great when you are looking for something specific!
