My son got married in Aug 2014. This is the card I made them.

St. Patty's Day

Almost everywhere I see a St. Patrick's Day card I hear "I don't have any or many St. Patrick's Day stamps". Well, it never has been a huge sending cards kind of holiday. But if you have a heart punch you can make a 3 or 4 leaf clover.

• I used Garden Green card stock for the base of the card which took a trip through the Big Shot riding inside the Elegant Bouquet embossing folder. They make the best impressions.
• To make the clover I punched out 4 hearts using the Full Heart Punch. I also punched out a 1 1/4" circle, covered it with Multipurpose Liquid Glue then stuck the hearts to that to give it somewhere to sit. Then pierced a hole with paper piercer for the Jumbo White Brad and adhered it to the card with a glue dot. Those little dudes are strong.
• Used the Wide Oval Punch on Whisper White cs after stamping Good Luck in Garden Green ink from the stamp set Sincere Salutations.

St. Patty's Day Cake

Every year at our Church we have a day to celebrate all of the birthdays for the entire year. Twelve people make a cake each, one for each month, and bring them to share. We have a meal and then we taste the cake of our birthday month and then we can taste any other cake we like. This is the cake I took last year.

• I used the FULL HEART EXTRA LARGE PUNCH to punch 3 heart negatives and put them together to form a shamrock.
• I used my craft knife to free hand the stem
• then I carefully laid the template I had made on the cake and sprinkled green colored sugar on it. I pressed it in slightly and lifted off the template.
• Then I sprinkled very lightly a little more sugar over the whole cake

The cake tasted yummy too. I tinted a white cake green and people told me they tasted mint. We are so influenced by what we see. I used cream cheese frosting, my favorite.

Saleabration is going on until March 31. Take advantage of ordering $50 worth of beautiful Stampin' Up product and you will receive your choice of a free Saleabration item,
