I promised you another post today if I got the card finished and I did! This is my second or third St. Patrick's card and I make them every year for all my grandkids to remind them that they have an Irish heritage on my side of the family. It's also a fun turn-around on birthday cards since I celebrate my birthday on St. Paddy's Day and it's fun to send out cards on my birthday. :-D
This image came from Bugaboo Stamps and is so adorable.
I colored Edward with my ProMarkers, then cut the image with a Memory Box, scalloped, stitched die. All the papers and CS were scraps and snippets from my desk, even the three little flowers were die cut from a scrap of mulberry paper (Spellbinders dies.)
I used my Linen embossing folder on the gold CS at the top and used my Scor-Pal to score the lines on the deeper green scrap of CS at the bottom. I added gems to the flower centers and called it finished.

Adorable card NC I love that cute little elephant on the pretty backgrounds!! A great way to remind your grands of their heritage :)
I love Bugaboo images, and I always wish I enjoyed coloring more and/or was better at it. You did a fantastic job. I love the addition of the three flowers all lined up next to your elephant and the color gradient you achieved with your papers.
