ATS Wednesday Challenge: Go Green!

Happy Wednesday! In honor of St. Patrick's Day, today's ATS Challenge is to use Green on your project. Honestly, I thought this would be an easy one for me, but the more I tried to get started, the more stumped I became. I think it's because I wanted to use a St. Patrick's kind of green, and that left me with Glorious Green, one of my most unfavorite colors. But, I was determined to press on. Then I spied this Scenic Route Surprise dp in my stash, and it saved me! :)

For this first project, I used the Cookie Crumbs set Cupcake Occasions. I stamped the cupcake once on white cardstock, once on the dp, and one more time on scrap white cardstock. I paper pieced the cupcake bottom. I colored the cupcake top with Prismacolor pencils, cut it out, and mounted it on dimensionals. I added some Green Stickles to the shamrock. I created the sentiment on my computer and cut it out with a Spellbinders Tag Trio die. The ribbon is from Michaels.

Okay, it was getting late when I finished the card, but I still had the supplies out, so I decided to make another project. I was apparently a little slap-happy at this point, because I totally cracked myself up with this one! :)

The image is from Amy's Boutique by AmyR Stamps, and the sentiment was again printed from the computer. It's a good thing Chris likes Guinness, because this project wouldn't pack the same punch on a non-Irish beer! ;)
