Irish you Luck! ♥

Happy March!
 
I can't believe how much time flies by in between posts ~
life is just full throttle here and doesn't slow down long enough
 for me to enjoy the Cabana and stamping time ...
until today!
 


 It's the 9th of the month and we 3 Musketeers are once again
stamping away with ink and paper and cute little images.
 
This month, Barb is our hostess and sent us Whipper Snapper's
"Irish Luck" images to create a card with.
I knew when I saw it what papers/color palette I wanted to use
but then it came to a screeching halt!
 
 
My card is really what needs the luck ~
It's a hot mess!
I started out with an old Deconstructed Jen sketch in mind
and it went way (way!) off course ~ so I just tossed
a few elements in the color palette that were on my desk
onto the card and just let it marinate a bit - LOL!
 
Time crunch = it is what it is! :)
 
Be sure to stop in and see what both girls made with
this same image and how different our cards all are!
Fabulous talent from Barb's blog and Jeanette's blog!
 
Thanks for stopping by!
Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
