Shamrock
I've been wanting to encorporate fabric into my papercrafting...so I grabbed some of this pretty artichoke fabric at the local fabric store and die cut four heart shapes to create a shamrock. Does it look like a shamrock to you? I originally had three larger buttons as the shamrock center, but started playing and ended up with one larger button surrounded by the mini ones.
Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes
Paper: Barely Banana, Always Artichoke & Whisper White CS, Shades of Spring DSP

Great card and color challenge. I had fun playing along!
Wow! What an amazing use of fabric Stacey! Love all those buttons in the centre of the shamrock and the celery ribbon is perfect!
Love it! And those buttons...oh my!!
I too have been wanting to add a little fabric, I think I luv fabric as much as paper, even though I don't sew. I think it is all the gorgeous patterns and textures same as paper.....beautiful card, I will have to case sometime...have a wonderful week!
enjoy *~*
Ooooo! pretty, pretty, pretty! I'm all for using fabric on cards!
wow Stacey, love how you have used the colours this week and the textured flower is brilliant, inspirational as always!
This is very original, love the idea of a fabric shamrock! I'd like to know if you starched the fabric or otherwise treated it before or after cutting/mounting ... thank you.
Love your fabric flower with the button center! so pretty! and great color combo!
I loved your card and it inspired me to get up from my chair and make a card. I was needing to make a sample of the easel card and I love the colors. My lighting didn't give my picture justice.
I have one, I have one, gotta get a good picture! :)
I LOVE YOURS!
Whoo-hooo, I played! :)
I needed some inspiration for a card tonight and these colors were exactly what I needed! Thanks for a great challenge!
