With St Patrick's Day not to far away, here is a card

and a little candy idea for some Irish Luck.

As I told you yesterday, I had this image already

colored for The Daily Marker Color challenge

and here is the finished card:

I cut the image out with an oval die, Now you

may wonder how come the feet are out of the 

oval. Well the image was a little too big, so I cut out 

the feet furst and moved those on top of the die, 

before cutting and it has a sweet effect.

The digital sentiment is by Create with TLC

and the background is design paper of a block.

Now on to the candy jar. You see i make the most of all

those jars i have from the twins. After a good clean I picked 

all the green M&M's out of a back to fill the jar.

A green dotted ribbon tied around the jar with another

sentiment by Create with TLC. 

The lid is decorated with a 4leaf clover made with the

mini heart stamp by Michael Strong. The stamp is embossed

 4 times with lime green on dark green paper and cut out.

The the hearts are glued to the lid of the jar in the shape

of the clover with a sticky pearl in the middle.

Thanks very much for looking

and have a creative day!

Happy St.Patrick's Day

On Tuesday (my Oma Day), I created this wreath

with my grandson to hang at their door, for

they are from Irish descent.

I traced his hands and used them to cut out these green hands.

Also the hands of the twins are in between the larger ones.

It was fun for my grandson to see the difference insize

between his hands and his brothers!

I found the banner on the internet and just print and cut.

Happy is a die from SU!.

Owen helpt me with coloring the gold embossed hearts

that created the shamrock at the bottom of the wreath,

The heart stamp is by Michael Strong.

As I love tho make fun things for St.Patrick's Day,

I had to make a cover for these green tic tac's.

Then I found the free printable bag topper on the 

web and that was just perfect for it.

Go to: glitternspice.

It is just an easy cover around the box

with a little design paper on the cover

and some clovers (done with a punch).

And finally a fun card with a digital image from a 

group I found on Facebook: Cre8tive Hands

and a sentiment from Tim Holtz.

Thanks for looking.

Have a great day!

Lucky Jar

Today i have a cute and easy project for you.

When there are Irish in the family,you cannot

miss out on St.Patricks Day (March 17).

and when theseIrish have all these baby food jars

I wnet to pinterest for some inspiration

and see here the result:

An Irish Luck candy jar.

I started with spraying the lid of the jar with

gold spray and set it aside to dry.

While thelid is drying I started with stamping

Michael Strong's small heart in versamark

 and embossed it with lime green embossing powder.

Then I took a blending tool and my lucky clover

distress ink to color the inside of the hearts. Then  I cut 

out the hearts with my scissors.

Meanwhile the lid had dried and I stuck a piece of 

foam tape on the middle of the lid and arranged

the heatrts as a 4-leaved clover with a sticky pearl

in the heart of the flower.

I arrange a green dotted ribbon around the jar

with a sentiment from Create with TLC.

You find the image this week on the blog

as a FREEBIE HERE.

This sentiment was printed with the computer.

I cut a slit left and right to get the ribbon through.

I want to enter this cute project for the

Green theme and ribbon or trim on the

Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog.

And for the DL.Art Blog

March Challange: Anything goes.

And also for the

Bit O'Green challenge on

the Simon Says Stamp Blog.

Thanks for looking!

Have a creative day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

While I was making cards for the Coffee Spring blog hop,

I looked for some inspiration on the web and found

this fun coffee sentiment and kept it to make a card to wish 

all my friends a Happy St.Patrick's Day.

I used:

Michael Strong's coffee cup

Club Scrap coffee ring stamp

bistre powder

clover stencil by clearscraps.com

vintage imageby Create with TLC

For the background I used first some natural and yellow

bistre powder. When alldry,i stamped the coffee rings

in brown ink and after that I took the clover template

and a green inkpad to add the clover to the background.

Then I stamped the coffee  on brown/golpaper

with gold embossing powder.I noticed the heart

 with the 2 coffee beans. On a separate green piece of paper

I stamped the heart 4 times and also embossed these

with gold embossing powder. I cut the hearts out and formed

 the clover on the cup with a small sticky pearl in the heart of

the flower. I also added a stem from the left over scrap.

The sentiment is printed out with the computer

and cut to size for the card. Made it look like a ticked

by using a corner punch and adding some ink all around.

This is the inside of the card with avintage image

from Create with TLC.

Hope you all have a fun day 

and thanks for stopping by.

Have a creative day!
