February 16, 2024

Hello, crafty friends! I hope you're having a great day! Spring is upon us, so what better way to celebrate the season than by creating a super cute shamrock gnome card?

Supplies:

Cardstock Warehouse Paper:

Lessebo White 100lb
Lessebo Pitch Black 100lb
Gold Mirror 100lb
Silver Mirror 100lb
Stardream Lagoon 105lb
Stardream Fairway 105lb

Spellbinders Gnome Drive Holiday Die Set
Spellbinders Gnome Drive Holiday Sentiment Stamp Set
Spellbinders Gnome Drive Spring Die Set
Spellbinders Stylish Ovals Die Set
Spellbinders Peppermint Stripe Embossing Folder
Half Pearl Embellishments
Liquid Glue + Foam Tape
Distress Oxide Tumbled Glass

First, I used Spellbinders Gnome Drive Holiday and Spring die sets to die cut and assemble the gnome, car, clovers, and horseshoe with Lessebo Pitch Black, White, Stardream Lagoon, Fairway, and Gold and Silver Mirror cardstocks. Next, I used Spellbinders Essential Stylish Ovals to die cut 2 different sized ovals with Gold Mirror and White Lessebo cardstock. I used Spellbinders Peppermint Stripes embossing folder and Lessebo White cardstock to emboss a panel.

Using my blending brush, I applied Distress Oxide Tumbled Glass to the center of the oval panel. Next, I applied foam tape to the back of the car die-cut and adhered it to the panel. Then I positioned the gnome, clovers and horseshoe. Once I was happy with the placement I used liquid glue to adhere the die-cuts to the panel.

Next, I selected a sentiment from the Gnome Drive Holiday stamp set and stamped the sentiment on the panel. Finally, I adhered a few half pearls to the panel and then adhered the entire front panel to a 4.25 x 5.5 top folding cardbase.
