The CAS challenge today is to layer 2 different shapes on our cards. I used a heart shape and a square. I've seen a lot of shamrocks made using a heart punch, and as I needed a St Patrick's Day card I thought this was the perfect opportunity to try it myself!
The card is for the bar staff at our local Irish pub who are just fabulous (and pour the best pint of Guinness outside of Dublin) and I will also be giving them some cupcakes with iced shamrocks on the top. A year ago they coped with 150 of us in a marquee in the pub garden where hubby and I had our wedding party - and they're still talking to us!!
Thanks for popping by to peek!

What a fantastic shamrock!!! I love how you built it from heart punches ~ and then layered it on the white square which frames it beautifully. What a fun St. Patty's Day card and super CAS card

Super job on the CAS challenge Sally. LOVE the placement of the hearts to make a shamrock and the terrific CAS layout. That little ribbon just seals the deal. Hey, does this mean you've only been married to Brian for about a year? And, he's already after "another woman"!! Sally, you better step up your game my friend!! May the best woman win!! LOL!!! Good to know you have great memories from the pub and they still let you come back. Too funny!! TFS!!
