Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps - Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hello everyone!

I’m here with Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps featuring St. Patrick Day stamps.  The Leprechaun is called Leprechaun on Pot of Gold and the sentiment is called Happy St. Pat's Day

Every month Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps will have a theme, this months theme is die cuts, Snarky,
Sweet Sentiments  and Get well.  If you would like to join, please feel free to share on the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps Flaunt It If You Made It Facebook page. Each week one person will be chosen to receive a $5 store credit.  It will be added to your account to spend on any rubber stamps from the store. All you have to do is make a card with at least one stamp from the sales category and use the technique and post it on the facebook page!

This months sale is 20% off snark, sweet sentiments and get well.

Here is my card for your inspiration:

My card measures 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. I die cut the top layer, I used some watercolor to create the background, I let it dry and then used a stencil to create the brick background.  I then stamped the image and sentiment onto the layer and then adhered it to the card base.

A closer look of the card.

a2z Scrapbooking April Challenge - Watercolor!

Hello everyone,

I am here with a2z Scrapbooking challenge for April which is watercoloring.  I am new at watercoloring, but I love how my card turned out.  For my card, I used my Koi watercolor paints and a watercolor brush.  I used watercolor paper to add my colors, after the paint dried, I laid the Hero Arts Confetti Stencil  Pair on my painted image and used a  baby wipe to rub some of the ink off to see the circles.  Don't you just love the effect, looks like bubbles floating in the air.  I used the Acts of Kindness stamp set and the Hero Arts White Embossing Powder along with versamark to emboss the sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you will join a2z Scrapbooking challenge this month. Please make sure your project uses at least one Hero Arts product. If you are in need any of the items I used or any Hero Arts products please visit the a2z Scrapbooking store you can use coupon code "Donna15" at checkout to receive 15% off your purchase of $25 or more before tax and shipping).
