Hello! Happy (Belated) St. Patrick's Day- and Kayne's half birthday! Yes, that's a thing. I've made it a thing. Lol (I'm a day late in posting this, but that's typical. Fashionably late to every party!)
To celebrate we always have some sort of green frosted baked good and I make him a card. This year we had rainbow chip cupcakes, and I colored up Lucky Leprechaun from Some Odd Girl. The sentiment is one of those $1 deals you find in the bins by the register at your local craft store. I used foam squares to pop up and add dimension to both the fussy cut image and sentiment. I added a few of black flat-back pearls and a couple of gold hearts done with a Martha Stewart punch. Shamrock paper is from my stash. See my product list below for all the other details.
I've entered SOG's March challenge HERE. It's Anything Goes with an optional twist: Pop-Up!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Everyone is a little Irish today and in this house it's an extra special day because it's Kayne's Half Birthday! I know that's not a real "thing" but we've been celebrating it every year and why not? Life is too short not to have all the fun you can! So for the occasion, I whipped up some rainbow cupcakes and a leprechaun card! We also had a visit from a real leprechaun overnight too... He left us Rolo filled pots of "gold"!
The image is called Leprechaun and is from Mo's Digital Pencil. I shouldn't try to color when I am stressed, tired, or otherwise preoccupied because I screw things up that way! Lol I missed a shoe buckle and I mistook his ears for hair! Oops! Luckily, the small man is a wee bit less critical than I am! The image is colored with Copics and cut using the Labels Sixteen Nestabilities (Spellbinders). The heart banner is La-La-Land Crafts. I created a rainbow out of strips of colored card stock. The shamrock paper is from Recollections. I added a pin and a Tim Holtz metal buckle as finishing touches. The sketch is Mojo Monday (#389) which I flipped upside down.
Here is my little leprechaun:
