I struggled a bit with this week’s sketch challenge. I knew I wanted to do something with shamrocks but I wasn’t sure what!
This is the sketch from the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. It is a slim line card this week which is always fun to do.
I used the small hearts from the Sweet Hearts Dies to create the shamrocks and then punched a stem using the Bough Punch. You can use any punch or die or even just fussy cut the stems.
The A Wish For Everything Stamp Set has sentiments for just about any holiday. I love the sentiment for St. Patrick’s Day.
Tips & Instructions
Just Jade Card Base - 8 1/2 x 7, score at 3 1/2
Evening Evergreen Cardstock - 8 1/4 x 3 1/4
Basic White Cardstock - 8 x 3
Cut 21 small hearts from Just Jade Cardstock using the Sweet Hearts Dies and punch 7 stems using the Bough Punch to create the shamrocks. Adhere them in the pattern as shown using small amounts of glue. I used the putty end of the Take Your Pick Tool to help get them in place.
Add a small Rhinestone in the center of each shamrock.
Stamp sentiment with Evening Evergreen Ink.
Emboss a 8 x 1/4 strip of Evening Evergreen Cardstock with the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder. You have to run it through twice to get the full strip embossed. Adhere across the white layer.
Adhere layers to card base.
On the inside stamp sentiment with Evening Evergreen Ink. Create a large shamrock using one of the larger hearts.
