Hello and Happy St. Patrick's Day a little early!!
I am Pinch Proof today over at She's A Sassy Lady!
I went to a crop and learned a few tricks with my CTMH Artiste cartridge.
This stamp set (Perfect Fit - Frames 2) coordinates with some cuts on the Artiste cartridge. It tell you the exact measurement of each image to coordinate with the stamp.
I chose the square-ish shape and cut some out of white cardstock at 2.5 inches.
I actually cut out several of each shape and put them with my stamp set for future use!! But for today's card, I used the square-ish one.
Next, I used a Stampin' Up stamp set (borrowed from my friend Jenny) for the circle image and the inside sentiment.
I stamped the Pinch Proof stamp on white cardstock and used my Fiskars 1" punch to punch it out. I inked the edges with the same green.
I stamped my cut image with green ink.
I wrapped the image with some orange twine for a color contrast.
I pop-dotted the circle image to the center of the shape.
I used some green stickles on the shamrock and a couple of gold gems on two corners.
I stamped the sentiment on white cardstock, trimmed it and inked the edges.
I used a 3x6 kraft cardstock card base, folded in half.
Here is my Pinch Proof card - I hope it works as I don't like getting pinched!!!
I hope you have a wonderful March!!
I am also entering this over at Craftin Desert Diva's!!
