Tag Tuesday #40 ~ Shamrocks
The shamrock theme this week is almost as challenging for me as the cutsey theme was last week. After an exhaustive search through 20 years worth of rubber stamps I realized I don't have a shamrock stamp. (More than 1500 stamps and not one shamrock, what was I thinking?) So, anyway I looked in ClipArt for a shamrock which I printed out in 3 sizes to use as masks for the background. then I punched out tiny hearts to layer over the medium sized masks. I've had the angel image for years, it was just waiting for this project. Thanks for another great challenge theme, Louise!

Thought for the Day: Psalm 119:105 "Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path!" It's comforting to know that there's no reason to wander around in darkness or confusion when light is so readily available.
