CDAC Holiday Challenge

10 March-23 March
Holiday/Special Occasion Challenge

This challenge is being sponsored by Stamping Dragon Designs.  We got to use this cute little Irish Dragon digi.  I wasn't planning on making another St. Patrick's Day card, but since the only other one I had was an old lady holding a beer glass, I didn't think it was appropriate to send to a 2 1/2 yr old.

This card also fits the following challenges:
Simon Says: Anything Goes
Meljens: #49 Use Green
Totally Stampalicious: sewing
Catch The Bug Challenge: Anything Goes
FTTC-sew on  your card (I went through sooo much hassle for this.  I even had my neighbor come over and show me how to use a sewing machine.  Yep---I can use a scroll saw, but not a sewing machine. Sad, I know.  Even after she left, I still couldn't figure out how to work it, so I ended up sewing, by hand, on the dragons band around his hat.  Looks like crap and not something I will probably do again).  :<

Recipe: paper-JLJ Designs (scalloped circle) and scraps, digi-Stamping Dragon Designs, flowers-Prima Sprites, dies-circle & scallop circle, brads-Shamrocks

Shamrock Pins

I made some (actually alot) of Shamrock pins for my nieces pre-school class.  At first I was just going to make three-one for my daughter and one for each of my nieces.  But then I had the bright idea of asking my sister how many kids were in Sage's class and she said 12.  So I ended up making more than just the origianl three!!  If anyone wants one, please act fast, as I am sending them out Sat. or Mon at the latest.  They are $2.00 each + shipping...

I painted them with an acrylic paint and used green stickles around the edges...
