Snailed It with Fine Art Floral


 Happy St Patrick's day!!  I don't send out cards for this
holiday, but I love green.  In this case, greeny-blues.

I got out a piece of the Fine Art Floral Designer Series 
Paper (page 33 of the Jan-June 2021 Mini Catalog), 
containing a combination of greens and blues.
It felt like a perfect background for a snail.  The Snailed It set 
on page 55, with coordinating Snail Dies works for any gender,
age and event.  This snail is so much fun to color with
Stampin' Blends and doesn't even require a sentiment! 
I added a strip of the lovely Golden Garden
Designer Specialty Acetate.  Did you know that it is
gold colored on one side, and silver on the other?!
I love it.  Somehow, the combination of that cheeky
snail, with fancy papers worked.

Finally, I ran the background layer through the
Painted Texture 3D Embossing folder (page 33 of the
Jan-June 2021 Mini Catalog).  This embossing folder 
sort of matches the texture pattern of the paper.
The card base is Soft Sea Foam.

If you love green then you must have loved Lemon Lime Twist! It would be a great color to come back. Just kidding you. Cute card!

This is so cute, Jackie! And, yes, Lemon Lime Twist is a great green and I want it back too :) I love the combination of all the elements. They do work together very well. (And, yes, that snail is very cheeky!)
