I don't know how Irish this card is, but I had fun playing around with a few different Brusho and Lindy's Magicals powders that I had added water to, and then painted several different backgrounds till I came up with one I liked. I also did some splattering on the one I chose, and the splattering had some Lindy's Magicals in it, so there's some really pretty sparkle on it, which of course I couldn't seem to capture with my camera! But IRL it really makes this card not quite so plain!!
I kept this card very CAS using only a white frame (PTI's Pierced Feature Frames) and a simple die cut from Poppystamps (Hampstead Bloom) that I thought I might be able to loosely term as a 4 leaf clover!
I added a simple white embossed strip on black for my sentiment (The Greetery's Sentiment Suite: Thinking of You) to finish off my card.
This challenge is still open till the 24th, so check out all the inspiration and play along with us right HERE...we'd love to see YOU in the gallery!!
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

A lovely water splattered green background for your lovely white stem Marcia! That flower could very well be a clover! So pretty with the white framing and bold black sentiment strip! xx
You may think this is 'plain' but I think it's pretty as a picture - Lucky you to have these fabulous green Lindy's!

The water drops and splattering add a lot of texture to that lovely green, Marcia. Your card is CAS and elegant.

Pretty, pretty my friend! Love the watercolored background and your CAS design.
Love the soft green of this background and the die cut flower does make me think of a four leaf clover! Hope it brings you good luck, my friend!
So pretty Marcia! Love the shades of green background with splatters. Really shows off against all the white framing. Love the pieced detail and the beautiful die-cut flowre. xx

Fresh, crisp and deliciously CAS, Marcia ... all those greens in the background are so pretty! Hugs, Anita :)
