Happy St. Patrick's Day from Just A Few Friends!

Happy Saturday everyone and welcome to the Just A Few Friends mini blog hop! Be sure you start at Elsa's blog - you'll get to see not only her wonderful project but the fantastic prizes The Pride is giving away! I'm also giving away some candy, so be sure to read this entire post for all the info.

This month's challenge was a color challenge. We decided to use green for St. Patrick's Day. I knew I was going to use my Nobu stamp from Sister Stamps but I needed a sketch to follow. I decided to follow a sketch I found on Scrapping Carolina. Here's the card I came up with.


The DP is from Prima, I colored Nobu with my Copics, and the shamrock was made using four punched out hearts.

Here's the candy I'm giving away: pink acrylic flowers, assorted charms, butterflies, two bottles of Glimmer Mist (Pink Bubblegum & Pearl) and some surprise goodies.




For a chance to win this candy, you need to be a follower of my blog who regularly leaves comments for me. I would also like to know how you would use the flowers and charms should you win this candy. Easy enough, right? I'm looking forward to reading all your comments! Thanks for stopping by today! Enjoy your weekend, and until next time, take care.

  8. What an adorable card Linda! I love that image - sooo cute! And I love the layers and textures. I have not been able to visit any blogs for the last few weeks and I am just starting to get back to my normal so I am glad not to have missed this hop - I love The Pride :) I love charms - have not played with them much as of yet, but I love to make stickpins and mini albums which I I like to hang charms from. And I put flowers on everything :)

  18. I had to add another comment cause it would not let me finish my first comment. Anyway I would use the flowers to alter this wood cram I'm working on and the pink is perfect. I would use the charms in a swap I'm in to make a chunky charm and share the rest. The Glimmermists would be all mine to use on laces and seam binding. I would use the pearl to add shimmer to my WOC flowers and the other color for dyeing laces and things. Thanks for this opportunity and God Bless! Dekida Hamler
