Method

Stamp out your image in alcohol friendly inkpad, on to your white cardstock. Then colour your image.

Also at this point stamp out, part of the stamp so you have another two clover images. Colour them the same as the one is the mouse's hands.

Next taking your 6 x6 green sheet of gingham paper and die cut a 4" x 4" square out of it at a wonky angle. Then place a square slightly bigger of green cardstock behind (Grass Green) attaching it with glue. 

Add some ribbon using a tape runner to attach. (Optional)

Stamp the little clover stamp with the Spanish  Moss in pad randomly on the green cardstock.

Lastly die cut the word Happy and  all the alphabet dies to say ST Patrick's Day and Hearts. Use a darker shade of green cardstock.

 Arrange on your card and foam mount the mouse. Finish with Gems and Crystal glaze on the hearts.

Hers A quick look at the Mothers Day card I also made.

I simply stamped out images coloured them in using my alcohol markers and foam mounted them on to a slim line card. Stamp out the greeting on a separate piece of cardstock and stamped "So Loved" straight on to the the green flower pot.

I do hope you enjoy todays blog

Happy Paper Crafting
