Simon Say Stamp - Gnome Lucky Card



Hello Lovelies! We have over a week before St. Paddies Day, but I'm already seeing green with my Gnome Lucky Card from Simon Says Stamp's Good Luck Charm Release!


As you may be able to tell if you've seen my craft space, I kinda have a thing for green, so I truly indulged myself here with green cardstock, ink and markers for this festive card. The pop of yellow, gives contrast and your eyes an opportunity to rest from all of that green.


I think that I may be the only PaperCrafter that does not enjoy coloring with markers as much as I should, but I'm so glad that I made the effort here on my little gnome. In addition to markers, let's review the key supplies for this card.
