St Patrick's Day

Here's my last St. Pat's Day card. I didn't send too many out this year. We'll just call it lack of motivation and move on, shall we? ;-)

This one was fun and super easy.

Take a piece of white, textured cardstock and drag Distress Stains down to make stripes.

Instant flag!

I made the clover just like I did for the card yesterday--Prima paper flower and lots of spray inks.

I wanted to make the flag kind of free-form and artsy, but it came out looking messy. A little free advice? When making flags, neatness counts. =D



Supplies:
Paper: Bazzill (white cardstock)); Recollections (ivory card blank)
Inks: Tim Holtz Distress Stains (Peeled Paint, Spiced Marmalade, Picket Fence)
ETC: Adirondack Color Wash (Lettuce, Meadow); Perfect Pearls Mist (Biscotti); Prima paper flower



Happy Friday!! I hope you have a wonderful, crafting-filled weekend!

PS:  The color scheme of green, white and orange is also One Layer Wednesday's challenge this week.  Play along if you get the chance!
