The Greetery - Shamrock Wishes! - A Blog Called Wanda

Hi there creative and crafty friends! Top o' the morning to you! It's my turn today on The Greetery Blog! So of course I'm posting here too! Spring is coming! And it's time for green all around us! Today I'm sharing a St. Patrick's Card made with the gorgeous Nordic Hearts - turned into a shamrock. I love St. Patrick's Day - it's my cat's birthday - ha! (His name is Lucky and he has gorgeous green eyes). Green is one of my favorite colors and this time of year, especially, it is so fresh and pretty. So make a wish on a Lucky clover!!

My finished card is an A2 white card base. Layered with white, green gingham and vellum - you know, my favorites! I started my card by die cutting three of the medium sized Nordic Hearts from olive, yellow, green cardstock. I made my stem by hand cutting the curve of another heart die cut. I generously splattered the pieces with gold paint. I die cut the Make A Wish die from gold cardstock. All stamps and dies are from The Greetery!

Here's a side view of all the pieces. Aren't you smitten with those hearts?! I definitely am!

I used the Calendar Basics stamp set to stamp March 17 onto a little banner from the Sentiment Suite Basics Die set. It fit perfectly there on that spot on the card. To assemble the card I layered green gingham paper, then vellum, then a white layer die cut with the Crimped Rectangles Dies. The white layer is popped up with foam tape. I put the hearts onto the white layer using foam tape and assembled them into the shape of a shamrock. I glued the Make A Wish over the top of the shamrock and then tucked the little banner underneath.

To finish off, I added a few little yellow heart embellishments. That's it for my project for today. Fresh green for Spring! I hope you have a wonderful and creative day. And an awesome weekend! We are going to a vintage pop up today and I can't wait!! It's my pleasure to share with you, and I look forward to sharing with you again soon. In the meantime, happy crafting! XOXO
