Shades of Green

Spring is just around the corner. It starts tomorrow actually. When I think of spring, I think of shades of green. St. Patrick’s Day was this week so there was green everywhere.

Where did you find shades of green this week?

I’m ready to find some green growing outside my window. But, it looks like for now I’ll have to be satisfied with shades of green in my papercrafting.

Pale green card with darker green stamped leaves on background. Rectangle of green plaid is centered on card. Three four-leaf clover punches in varying shades of green are at the right side of the rectangle. "Happy St Patricks Day" is stamped directly on the rectangle. Gold sequins add the bling to the card.

Card Details

Do you want to make a festive card for St. Patrick’s Day or maybe just for someone who loves green? I want to help turn your crafting stress into success. Use products in different shades of green.

When you want green punches, it’s easy to assume you need to find a piece of paper that is all green. What if you tried something unexpected? Get a pattern that has some green on it and only punch in the green section. No one will ever know the paper you used had a rainbow variety of colors.

The four-leaf clovers on this card were punched from various patterns from the Full of Life Designer Series Paper pack. Each pattern had a rainbow of colors, but each punched image only showed the shades of green.
