Brewing Luck for St. Patrick’s Day

Hello! Six years ago, I created a card featuring a Paper Smooches teapot and mugs. Rather than starting from scratch for St. Patrick’s Day, I revisited that same layout with most of the original products giving them a fresh seasonal twist. By swapping in shamrocks and creating a simple “Brewing Luck” sentiment on my computer, this familiar design feels completely new. It’s a good reminder that our supplies aren’t limited to the occasion we first used them for. With a small shift in theme, they can stretch beautifully into holidays like St. Patrick’s Day.

Brewing Luck for St. Patrick’s Day

    • With the Paper Smooches Coffee & Tea die set, cut the tea pot, tea bag, and cups. For the teapot, cut the pot twice, the second time trimming off the bottom part to make the lid.
    • Create the sentiment on a computer and add to a patterned paper panel. To quiet the pattern, adhere vellum with double-sided adhesive. Add the assembly to a patterned paper card base measuring 4 inches square.
    • Embellish with shamrocks cut from glitter paper. (I used a Taylored Expressions Little Bits Shamrocks die set.)
