Happy St. Patrick's Day to all whom celebrate! Today I have a card to share that I made for my dear Irish DIL in celebration of St. Patrick's Day featuring a variety of pretty ColourArte products.

To create this card, I added lots of texture to a piece of watercolor paper using a stencil and modeling paste. Once dry, I randomly applied Radiant Rain Fern and Radiant Rain Honey Dew sprays. I topped it off with a Honey Dew colored bow and a shaker full of pretty sequins.

For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the current As You See It challenge:

as well as this month's Mixed Media Monthly Card challenge where the theme is Spring:

Many thanks for stopping by!

Hi there! It's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! Referencing the saying "March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb" this week, we're all about animals!

I was inspired to create a layout featuring my two sweet dogs ~ Gretchen and Griffin:

I love to run but my dogs little four legs can't quite go the distance, so I take them for a ride in their stroller.

One of my favorite photos of my sweet dogs positioned in a Cabinet Card Frame made for a great focal point on my layout.

To compliment the vintage frame, I combined pretty patterned papers from the Wallflower Cardstock Pack then embellished with Rusty Hinge colored die cut Grungeboard Gadget Gears.

For added interest, various Remnant Rubs were randomly applied:

Thanks so much for visiting! I hope you enjoyed my project and I hope you join along with the Simon Says Stamp Monday Stamp Challenge! Please be sure to visit the Simon Says Stamp Monday Stamp Challenge blog to see all the DT's fabulous inspiration!
