St.Patrick's day greeting cards


A land of mist and rolling green
where ancient tales are heard and seen
with rugged coasts and sky of grey
and heathered hills along the way
a gentle rain, a sunny smile
The magic of the Emerald Isle.
Hello lovelies, 'hope you are well! today I am sharing Three vintage cards that I have created for St. Patrick's day. 





For my first card, I have used this beautiful vintage photograph along with these lovely boho, shabby chic papers. I have also added these wonderful vintage ledgers.






For my other cards, I have used some more vintage photos and a collection of papers from the same boho / shabby chic paper kit. Vintage ledgers have also been added. To finish, I adhered some torn washi tape and butterfly wing ephemera.


I hope that I have inspired you to create your own vintage cards for St. Patrick's day!


Thank you so much for stopping by the Den, I really appreciate your visit and kind comments!

I would like to enter this creation into the following challenges:






I have been inspired by the rich emerald green colour theme of this inspiration image. I also love that Ireland has many folklores, one of which are the Fae folk! I live in England but have always wanted to travel to Ireland and experience the beauty and history of the country itself.
My old friend was a native of Ireland and I remember the wonderful childhood stories she relayed to me about growing up in Ireland!


CD Sunday plus challenge #179   I have used boho/shabby digital papers from Crafty Junky Prints over on Etsy.
