My Sheri Crafts - Ch. 80 Happy St. Patrick's Day

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Happy Saturday everyone! Time again for a fun challenge at My Sheri Crafts!  Challenge 80 is Happy St. Patrick's Day - Make an easel card and add a shamrock. I enjoy doing easel cards! Of course, several variations can be done. You can find a tutorial at SplitCoastStampers for the basic easel card. I made a Twisted easel card and you can find Mary's tutorial at Cardz TV.

Cricut Cartridges:
Simply Charmed - Page 32 Leprachaun is cut 2.75".
Elegant Edges - Page 62 For the white mat and green mat, I used Clover-s (image on shift) is cut 3 1/2" and shadow feature is cut at same size.
A Child's Year - Page 31  Shamrock is cut using the Icon feature cut at 1.75".
Phrases -  Page 45 "Happy St. Patrick's Day" is cut at 1.25" using Phrase 3 main and shadow keys.
Cuttlebug:
Polka Dots Folder on the white mat
Swiss Dots - Hat; Divine Swirls - Hair; Houndstooth- Jacket
Other supplies: Acton Wobble under the Leprachaun for some fun movement and he is holding the shamrock with a piece of Baker's Twine. Shamrock and mats are pop-dotted. Recollection gemstones.
