Cricut Artfully Sent St. Patrick's day POP-UP card

Cricut Artfully Sent St. Patrick's day POP-UP card

Hello, friends!

Today, I have a FUN pop-up card made using the Artfully Sent cartridge. St. Patrick's day is quickly approaching, so I am trying to get my projects made. As luck would have it, I know three people who have St. Patrick's day birthdays. My brother is one of those people and he loves getting the St. Patrick's Day themed cards for his birthday. 

I did some fancy stitching on this card, as you can see. I even used a gold pen I have had in my stash for a while. I have never been a gold fan, but it is so hot now in everything from crafting to home decor. The color is starting to really grow on me! It is so weird how you sometimes are not crazy about something and then all of a sudden you love it. 

Back to the pen, it is the same brand as the white pens I use. They are called Uni Ball Signo pens. They come in many colors other than white or. gold. I own several different colors, but only ever really use the white one.

This is so pretty! I have Artfully Sent and didn't realize it was on there. The pop-ups are a little tricky, but so neat when they are finished! Thank you.

Well now, I just love your St Patty's day card! The inside is gorgeous with all the lucky shamrocks popping up all over. And the stitching and bow on the front are so simple and perfect. As for the gold, I think you HAVE to use gold for St Pats day. Every little leprechaun known for having a pot of gold!
Thank you for sharing this lovely greeting! :)
