Happy Gnome Patrick's Day

 Hello and Happy Monday!  I hope your weekend was relaxing, and if you have been affected by the Winter's Storms, I do hope you are safe, warm and well.  

Today's post features a cute St. Patrick's Day Gnome, die cutting, heat embossing, stenciling, ink blending and hand coloring. 

This A2 sized card was inspired by a Gina K. Designs You Tube video.  The background panel was stamped with the Gina K. Music Medley background stamp and heat embossed with white powder.  Using a stencil, I blended Gina K. inks over the panel to reveal areas of embossing.  The focal image and scalloped border were die cut and mounted on foam pads.  A ribbon, bow and gems added to complete the look.

He's a cutie patootie whose handong out shamrocks.  This was fun to create and I do like how it came together.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!
