St. Patrick's Day is coming and for those of you in Southie that means green beer, parades and parities galore. For one day of the year Everyone is Irish, at least in the South End of Boston. Before I ramble on and on about the merits of this truly awesome holiday, I'm going to stop myself and get back to stamping.
Often times it is hard to find the perfect stamp. If you have visited this blog before, you know by now that I always like to find multiple uses for everything I use whenever possible.
Today, I'm going to show you how to create a 4-leaf clover using the Priceless Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! (PN 115052). FYI: The Priceless stamp set from Stampin' Up! to me is the most versatile stamp set in the entire catalog. With a little imagination this set can be used for several holidays including (Valentine's Day, Christmas and even St. Patrick's Day).
Using the 5 leaf flower from the Priceless Stamp Set, color 4 leaves with the Stampin' Write marker of your choice. Here Always Artichoke was selected.
On the fifth flower, draw a line down the middle. Don't worry if it is a little wiggly. A little wiggle will only make it look better! Once you have colored the stamp, stamp it a couple of times and then color it again to create the clovers shown below.
You can stamp these f-leaf clovers where ever you like, or you can cut them out to adorn your St. Patrick's day creation!
Here is an example.
Tomorrow's post will discuss creating letter's with the Big Shot!
