An Irish Blessing - SSS150

Hi all! And a Very Happy St' Patrick's Day & Sweet Stop Sketch Saturday to you too! 8-) Hope you all had a Wonderful week! Mine's been busy busy creating in my crafts room, attempting to work ahead in order to prep for my Vacation at the end of April. 8-) I want to make sure all is taken care of well in advance, so you may not even notice my absence. Well that's the plan anyway..lol 8-)  Today I'm back with the latest  Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge, Yay!  And since it's the third Saturday of the Month,we have a fun spin for you too, so you know there's a Terrific prize up for grabs to one very lucky winner! 8-) Our spin this time is "To show us your Green!" 8-) So without further delay, here's my take on Miss Korin's Fabulous sketch and the spin..
I Stamped my Pretty  Clover image from Flourishes Irish Blessings stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Flourishes Classic White, colored them up with my trusty Copics and fussy cut them out. I popped them up with some foam tape onto a SB die cut Classic square & layered it onto another Classic square die cut that I ran thru my CB with the big dots EF. For my mats and BG layers, I chose a combination of dark green CS from my stash and some Adorable digi dp's from Moon Stream Designs and Tracy Ann Digital Art. To finish it all up, I stamped my Flourishes Sentiment onto an layered oval die cut tag with Memento Tuxedo Black, added Sweet MS punched border, some ribbon from my stash and a few pretty little pearls here and there as well... 8-)

And Here's Miss Korin's Awesome Sketch..
I hope you can play along with us at The Sweet Stop! Can't wait to see what you all come up with for this weeks sketch with Spin! And as always, please, make sure to stop by and take a peek at the Beautiful creations the rest of the Wonderfully Talented Sugar Babies have cooked up for your inspiration. Leave them a little Love too, it's always greatly Appreciated. 8-)
