Poison Ivy with a Four-Leave Clover

 Happy Saturday!  It's just a week away (minus a day), you need to wear GREEN!!  I recently read somewhere that the reason you need to wear green is so the leprechauns don't see you.  If you don't wear green on St. Patrick's Day, they can see you and will pinch you!  Well, who am I to argue with so many years of tradition?  😉

This fun fold was made using a Rick St. Dennis image (the clover pot) and an image from Fearyink (the girl leprechaun).  This funfold was just done live over at Dawns Live on Youtube - HERE.  Obviously she used totally different papers and things...awesome papers!!  I chose to do a joke using a strip of transparency film with the 'punch line' hidden until you open the funfold.




It is difficult to see in the pictures, but I did use a gold shimmer brush on the four leaf clovers on the right side of the card and on the gold coins.  I used a clear shimmer brush on the two pots.

Thanks for looking!

This is a fold I have yet to tackle. I love your resulting card. I didn't know that was the reason to wearing green. Hugs Mrs A.
