Well, do you have your green ready to wear so you'll be "pinch proof" on St. Paddy's Day?
I have my house all decorated. We always have a fun St. Patrick's dinner at my house, complete with a hunt for the gold with my grandchildren.
This week over at Whimsical Designs our challenge theme is "Happy St. Paddy's Day", create a card or project and include something to do with St. Patricks Day: ie-green, four leaf cover, leprechaun.
Our sponsor for this week is Miriams Crafting Supplies and you can win 10 sets of pearls!!!
For my St. Patricks Day project I made Pots of Gold as favors to put on my table for my friends and family.
They were created using a Silhouette Studio cut file. I tied green and gold shamrock charms around the pots with twine and added a label too. The label was stamped with one of Stephanies sentiment stamps from her set Whimsical Fun Vol 1 which you can purchase here. I filled them with green M & M's and chocolate filled gold coins.
Supplies used: card stock - black, shiny gold, green, vanilla; twine - my stash; stamp - Whimsical Fun Vol 1 by Whimsical Designs; ink - Tuxedo Black by Memento; Silhouette Studio cut file; glascine bags - Michaels; candy.
Now I hope you'll head on over to Whimsical Designs to see the other fabulous St. Paddy's day projects the design team has created!!!!!!

This is such a fun way to celebrate St Pat's Day. The "gold" peeking out makes the treat very inviting.
