Lucky Day!
Good morning! It's the first day of school here at our house today!! We're starting out a bit later this year but we're all excited about a fresh, new year of learning! I'm excited to get back to a regular schedule (although I really could use a few more weeks of summer!!) :) We've had such a busy summer and I feel like I haven't been posting as much - hopefully that will change! Since it's also Monday that means it's time for Kitchen Sink Stamps Monday!
I recently traveled to far Northern Maine (like Canada was just on the other side of the St. John River!) for my mother-in-law's family reunion. It was such a neat opportunity to see a part of Maine I had never seen and meet a lot of my husband's relatives. It was the O'Leary family reunion - they're just a wee bit Irish :) - which put me in an Irish mood. Kitchen Sink Stamps had the perfect sets for me! Multi-Step Shamrocks & Clovers and Multi-Step Lucky Horseshoes worked so well for this quick little card!
With just a bit of masking it was easy to layer up the shamrocks and horseshoe! The Ready 4 Any Holiday set gave me the sentiment which would work for any day of the year, not just St. Patty's Day!

ReplyDeleteWonderful design - great masking!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool card! I like how you masked the shamrocks and horseshoe! You have a LOT more patience than me! I am not a great masker!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it interesting how one can live in a state for most of one's life and still not have traveled to every part of it?! Sounds like you had a great time w/ your in-law's family!
