Lucky

After a flurry of photographic posts, I’m back with a card. This one for two challenges: FUSION: St. Paddy’s Day, and Inspired By: Get Lucky.

St. Patrick’s Day is fast approaching. We’ll be celebrating twice because it’s also Tracy’s 70th birthday. Matt, Betsy and the girls are coming for a birthday dinner Friday night, and the two of us will celebrate on Saturday with the traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner at home. We’ll eventually go out to dinner to celebrate as well, but St. Patrick’s Day is just too crazy.

Typically, I’d post Tracy’s card on his birthday, but since it’s perfect for both challenges, it’s going up a couple of days early. Both challenges end very soon.

Except for the two stickers from Jolee, everything on the card came from Papertrey Ink. The patterned paper is an older one, and I cased this design for the card from one Lizzie Jones posted during the January release. The dies and sentiment are from the “Lucky” series of stamps and dies released that month.

I wanted a bit of embellishment and was happy to find a sheet of St. Patrick’s Day stickers in my stash. 

Hope your week is off to a good start. I’ve had lots of fun playing with stamps, so there’ll be more card posts in the near future.
