KS Monday -- KSS & PT Pot of Gold Giveaway!!


Happy Kitchen Sink Monday everyone~
Today is my fellow KS Crew Lisa Somerville's birthday!! Woohoo!! Big birthday wishes to you, Lisa!!
We are doing the special celebration for today's KS Monday post. As I posted last Saturday, PaperTemptress and Kitchen Sink Stamps are partnering up for a St. Patty's day celebration with some great prizes, be sure to visit the PaperTemptress's Community blog for more details on how to find your clues and enter the contest.

For more inspiration using Kitchen Sink Stamps Multi Step Shamrocks & Clovers along with KSS St. Patty's Day Green Paper Package from Paper Temptress be sure to visit the other KSS Designers Blogs. While I don't have a part of the Phrase Word, they just might!





For my card, I used the sketch from Our Creative Corner challenge, that was posted on Mar 6th. Besides the Shamrocks & Clovers set, I used Words of Comfort & Joy for the words "So" & "Blessed". The inside of the card, I stamped the each word with Simple Sentiments and Other Important People sets.

These are the steps I did for each image (all inks are Memento unless mentioned):
(all clovers & shamrocks) 3rd- cottage ivy, 2nd -
bamboo leaves, 1st - new sprout, repeat the 3rd step again
