Happy St. Patrick's Day Challenge #9

Well good morning all, it is Wednesday and you know that means it is time for another Tellen's Place challenge. And this week is all about St. Patrick's Day. For this day you have to have lots of green and shamrocks and a lot of blarney. If you are Irish it is time to party. Even if you are not Irish it's time to party. I am originally from Chicago and every year the city fathers see fit to turn the Chicago River Green. Can you imagine how much food coloring it takes to turn a river green? Well take my word for it, they do it. I have never understood it though. But there you have it, my one and only story about St. Patrick's Day.

Let's talk about the challenge. Terry the owner of Tellen's Place has graciously offered another freebie for you to use for this challenge. And this is the image that I chose to use for my card. It is an image of Jessica holding a shamrock and she is a real cutie. She looks like she is dancing a jig. The DP paper  that I used was from Basic Grey Wisteria pad, the yellow swiss dot paper is from Bazzill and the shamrocks I bought at Michaels for the occassion. The tag was cut with my Spellbinders fancy tag and the bling is from my stash. The image was colored with my Copics:

Skin: E31, E33
Hair: E09, E15, E13 (notice I got some new colors for my birthday)
Shirt/socks: G24, G21
Shamrock: G07 and the mint spica glitter pen
Pants/shoes: Y21, Y08 the shoe laces were colored with a metallic yellow gel pen
Eyes: E13, E41

I popped up the mat with large pop dots and then I also cut Jessica out and popped her up to give the card a little dimension. The bling is actually jewelled brads that I bought at Michaels. I don't know how many times I have walked right by them and not look twice. But they had some more really nice sets so I will definitely be looking from now on.

After you leave here why don't you go over to Tellen's Place Designs online store and take a look at the lovely images and mini kits that she has to offer. Please take a moment and visit the other Design Team member's blogs and see all of the other wonderful creations. You can get to their blogs from my side bar.

I would like to take this time and welcome the new design Team members Alicia, Pam and Robin. I really believe that you are in for a treat to be designing for Tellen's Place.

I am also entering this card in a challenge at Tuesday Taggers,  the challenge is St. Patrick's Day, this will be the first challenge that I have done there, but I hope to go back again and again.

Well that is all for now.
