I know St. Patrick's Day isn't the most popular card giving holiday but is sure is a fun one to create cards for! Get out all of those greens and have some fun!

Before I jump into the tutorial:

Let's talk about the cards:

This could be any occasion and any color combo if you do not celebrate St. Patrick's Day

Products Used
  • Hello Beautiful Stamp Set (for the Backgrounds)
  • A Wish For Everything Stamp Set
  • Word Wishes Dies
  • A Variety of Green Inks from Light to Dark
  • Stampin' Up! Greens I used in ink and cardstock: Garden Green, Granny Apple Green, Evening Evergreen, Just Jade, Soft Sea Foam, Shaded Spruce, Old Olive
  • Misty Moonlight Ink
  • Poppy Parade Ink
  • VersaMark Ink
  • Gold and White Heat Emboss Powders
  • Genial Gems
  • Heart Punch Pack (smooth edge heart to create shamrock)
  • Paper Trimmer
  • Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
  • Multipurpose Glue
  • Adhesive Sheets (to turn those die cut words into stickers)
Card Measurements:

Card Bases: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 and score at 4-1/4"
Layers vary depending on your card layout
For the Shamrock Card: 
  • Evening Evergreen Layer: 4-1/8 x 5-3/8"
  • Grany Apple Green Layer: 3-1/2 x 3-1/2"
  • 3 Heart Punch Die Cuts
  • 1 Stem: 1/2 x 2" 
  • Sentiment Strip: 1/2 x 3-1/2"
The other cards are simpler. Less layers and the Sentiments become the centerpiece so the patterns we stamped are not covered by layers. Both options are here and you can choose which you prefer.
