Charlie wanted to help sew

Supplies used:

Kraft cardstock (base 8.5” x 5.5”)

Tim Holtz Distress Ink in vintage photo

Cream card stock (4 squares – 1.75” and 1 rectangle – 1”x 4.25”)

Sewing machine and brown thread

Quickutz shamrock die – cut 4 with dark green cardstock

Lucky stamp (stampabilities)

Olive Green StazOn

Adhesive (I use a scotch advance tape gun)

Pop dots

Before I cut the kraft card stock to size (originally 8.5”x11”) I ran it through my ink jet printer and wrote “Happy St. Patrick’s Day” on the inside of the card. Once the base is cut and scored, distress the front edges. Sew around the pieces of cream cardstock before you adhere them to the card base. Assemble as shown in picture, using a pop dot to adhere shamrocks.

Irish Blessing card

inside

Supplies used:
Reminisce patterned shimmer and glitter paper – lucky you (5.25”x34”), shamrock confetti (3"x4" and cut out with label die)
Coordinating green cardstock (base 8.5” x 5.5” and 4.25" x 3.25" ) - I used Coredinations gemstone jade, it shimmers
Smooth white cardstock
Label # 8 dies (Spellbinders Nestabilities)


Before I cut the green card stock to size (originally 8.5”x11”) I ran it through my ink jet printer and wrote “Happy St. Patrick’s Day” on the inside of the card. I printed the Irish blessing on smooth white card stock. Textured cardstock is not recommended for printing onto. I taped the label die over the Irish blessing to keep it in place while I ran it through the cuttlebug.

The Spellbinders Nestabilities can also emboss, so it did this around both label shapes. You need a Spellbinders tan embossing mat to do this.

Assemble as shown in picture and your done!
