Old St. Paddy

Thought I would get a jump start on my St. Patrick’s Day projects with this cute little card.  When I saw the new Lettering Delights set “Luck of the Irish” I knew I had to make Patrick into a card for my sister’s birthday.  I know it really isn’t a birthday card type file, especially one for a sister.  But we are a weird family and since her birthday is the day after St. Patrick’s Day, it’s appropriate.  OK, it is more of an inside joke that would get me in trouble so I won’t go into it.  ^__^

Something about convincing the neighborhood kids we were related to Erin go Bragh.  Who, for those that don’t know, isn’t even a person but a saying translated loosely means “Ireland Forever” in Gaelic.  Yeah, something like that.

Just had to get a close up of his stylish mustache and cool little hat.  Done in good Irish colors too.  He looks almost as Irish as my sister, who you can’t think of anything but when you look at her.  It’s those cool Irish eyes she has!  Maybe I should have made Pat’s eyes pale blue to match hers.  Now I think of it, right.

If you are wondering why his hat looks a little weird and popped out a bit much is because it’s a wobble!  I thought it would be funny if his head bobbed back and forth trying to give kisses to my sis.  Yeah, weird family.  She’ll get a kick out of it.

See?  Who wouldn’t like some good ol’ Irish smooches.  I know it’s a stretch on the looking like he is trying to kiss her.  She just might think he is telling her no and to stay away.  hahahahahahaha, yeah, I’m wicked too.  😀

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my card.  I will have a tutorial up soon on how to save more money and make your own springy wobble.  Super easy!  Hope your week is starting out great!
