Think Green!

Wow...I'm finally scrapping again!! I haven't been near my stash in what seems like forever!
Now that I think I have my mojo back....here is a fun, colorful page for St. Patrick's Day.

The Paper Variety is having a "Let's See Your Green" Blog Hop! As long as you use at least 50% green on your project, you're in the running for a great prize! There were so many great pages! And they all weren't just for St. Patrick's Day....tons of inspiration!

The picture on the left is of the waterfall at a nearby nature preserve. Every year, on St. Patrick's Day, they dye the waterfall green. It is soooo pretty! This picture is one of about a dozen that I took. I was able to catch lots of pictures as the dye slowly progressed down the falls.
I hand cut the die cut shapes myself. The "lace" at the bottom is a felt border, with ribbon and shamrock accents on it.

I used a great sketch from Frosted Designs to work with. :)
This sketch was so pretty and I don't have any Spring photos yet! It started snowing again this morning... :(
