Hello Friends and Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
I hope you are all staying safe and enjoying some downtime with your family at home during this pandemic in this crazy world around us. If you are alone, make sure you are staying active on social media. This is a great time to be more social virtually. Hopefully, this virus will be contained soon so we can return to our usual life and the kids can go back to school. In the meantime, let’s make the most of it and do our part to keep our families and our community safe by staying at home. Being a nurse I do have to go to work but will do my best to be safe when caring for my patients and hopefully not bring any virus home with me.
I don’t have a St.Patty’s day card to share but it is definitely Spring-inspired which gives me hope for the future. I cannot wait to see some color in my back yard and see the busy bees back at work in my garden.
To begin I stamped and white heat embossed the PEONY TRIMMINGS. I then colored them in using Arteza Brush pens. I then die cut the flowers with the coordinating PEONY TRIMMINGS dies.
Next, I die cut the background using the MICRO HEXAGON COVER and glued a CLEAR ACETATE SHEET to the back of the die-cut panel. To the background, I added a thin strip of foam tape along the perimeter to create the shaker area. I then added the MAJESTIC GLITTER and the IRIDESCENT CRYSTALS to the top of the card front base and glued down the Hexagon cover.
To finish up and embellish the card further, I added the cute little be from the HONEY BEES stamp and DIE set
The sentiment also comes from the PEONY TRIMMINGS that I then stamped onto a banner from the PEONY TRIMMINGS Die set.
For an added touch of shine, I added some IRIDESCENT BUBBLES in various sizes.
Thank you for stopping by, I hope you were inspired by this Spring Peony Trimmings Hexagon Shaker Card. Until next time… Happy Crafting and make sure to wash your hands!

Thanks so much for your comment Yolande. Here in Edmonton, looks like we will be getting more snow this weekend. Sadly I feel like Spring will still be at least a few months away. I hope I am wrong. Stay safe!
