St. Patricks's Day Shamrocks- Spellbinders APG for March
Today I am sharing a St. Patrick's Day card made using Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace (APG) Die of the Month for March created using a few simple adaptations of the die set.
Scroll down and I'll share how I made some sweet and simple shamrocks using this wonderful set created by Becca Feeken.
Tips and Techniques for DIY Shamrock
The DIY Shamrock is rather simple and adorable when clustered together on a card. Add foam dots behind for volume, ink the edges, finish with a pretty accent crystal and you've got a gem of a card.
The Shaker Elements
The chipboard shaker elements are from Creative Embellishments.
While CE has absolutely amazing shaker sets, I am using their Artist Trading Coin collection, with adaptive rings to create the shaker.
The Rings, shown below, come with the pre-cut matching acrylic window necessary to create a shaker.

The shaker mix is also an important part of the magical fun. I used Lucky Charmz Sparkletz from Buttons Galore, a beautiful festive blend of sequins, beads, crystals and shapes.
I finished off the card using 3D glitter Shamrocks mixed into the clusters for a bit of luck (and glitz).

And as always, the dies for Spellbinders monthly clubs are exclusive to Spellbinders and you won't find them anywhere else.

Oh, Jennifer, this is absolutely stunning! Honestly, I'd go so far as to say it might be my favourite St. Patrick's Day themed card I've ever seen. What an elegant, classic, gorgeous design - and the Claddagh (ring) element is the awesome icing on the cake that is this breathtaking make.
