Creative Confetti - Feelin' Lucky!


Feelin' Lucky and Feelin' Green I am. This is the week of the wearing of the green and celebrating the Irish.  Since taking his DNA test, my husband now cemented that fact that he is 95% Irish!  I think some of that has rubbed off on me.  I only thought about the design of this card for a little while and I knew that It would have shamrocks and it would be green. Here is how it turned out.
 This is a digital image from Power Poppy called Wish You Luck (great title)
I printed it out on X-press paper, great for copic marker coloring.  I enlarged it quite a bit as I knew that I wanted to cut out letters.  I mean it was really big!  Then I colored up the shamrocks in greens. This card was going to be a finished 6X6 square card.  Sprayed it with glimmer mist.

After coloring, I placed the dies from Altenew Bold Alphabet where I wanted them making sure they were straight.


I die cut  the letters LUCK from the main panel and two more times from white cardstock. 
Glued them all together and placed them back in the design.  

Here is a better look  from the side.  I didn't stop there, I added Nuvo clear drops to all of the letters in the word LUCK. So you could see them better. 
Last, I put Green Nuvo drops scattered on the white.


I still had some of the shamrocks left over so I colored them up and placed them on the inside with a green border and a panel to add my sentiment later. 
Creative Confetti for this week all you need to do is choose to add a little green to your card OR use an image or sentiment that signifies luck! 

Well, that is my card for this weeks Creative Confetti!  Happy St Patrick;s day to you all.  
I do appreciate your comments always!
