I love St Patrick's Day and 4 leaf clovers or shamrocks. And even though I'm not Irish in anyway, I guess 4 leaf clovers remind me of my mom.
I remember as a kid, she would always be out in our yard looking for 4 leaf clovers and even though it took some time, she somehow managed to find one or two. I found this one in our yard several years ago and don't know why I taped it to the lid of one of my jar candles, but there it is and when I look at it, I think of my mom. LOVE YOU MOM!!! Can't wait to see you again in heaven!

 
Anyway, I saw a card like this, as usual, on Pinterest, thought it was adorable and decided to give it a shot. The original one was 4 1/4" x 5 1/2, but I wanted it a little bigger so I started out with a 6 x 6",  and cut one side down to 5 1/2" x 6" and I literally just eyeballed it, made a few changes, and here's what I came up with.

Hope you enjoyed stoppin' by!

Always Fun - *"The Luck of the Irish" 2001

This is similar to an A2 size (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") card that I made years ago. I love the green and gold color combo so I thought I'd recreate it and change it up a bit by making it an A7 size (5"x7") with different images.

Here's the original:
