First up: a layered and embossed card using all Hero Arts stamps:
Next up, a one-layer card with masking. I used some old Hero Arts stamps along with a current background and sentiment. The shamrocks were paper-pieced using a $1 Studio G stamp I found at the local craft store, and I added the black gems for a little punch; the shamrock on the right is popped up for dimension.
I have always loved St. Patrick's Day...and the funny Irish blessings and quotes that abound (e.g., "May you be in heaven a full half hour before the devil knows your dead!"). Check out THIS website if you want to find lots of info about St. Patrick's Day. Here is a pretty blessing that I'll end this post with, my friends:
May you always have work for your hands to do.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
