evening evergreen – Creative Juice by Loni

In March, GREEN isn’t just a color… It’s a mood. A wink. A tiny paper parade. 🍀 And NOW is the time to set the stage!

For this card in my Celebration Combination series, the Stampin’ Up!® Reason to Celebrate and Seasonal Celebrations stamp sets to create a St. Patrick’s Day design that feels happy-go-lucky! The IN COLOR of the season is SHY SHAMROCK (one of those 2024-2026 In Colors retiring soon) which pairs perfectly with Shaded Spruce.

The shiny stripes are from the Pleasant Patterns Specialty Designer Series Paper and add the bling on this card, inside and out!

This greeting card isn’t just about St. Patrick’s Day…it can simply say:

“I’m lucky to know you.”
“You brighten my day.”
“Wishing you luck in reaching your goals.”
“Friends are the best kind of good fortune”

I couldn’t resist coordinating! When the card says “Lucky,” you may as well lean in and wear the theme. 😉

By mixing sentiments from Reason to Celebrate with the versatile imagery in Seasonal Celebrations, we can commemorate big holidays, small wins, ordinary weekdays, and everything in between.

The best celebration isn’t a holiday on the calendar. It’s remembering a person you love. 🍀💚

Product List

See you tomorrow for another fusion of these two stamp sets!

While I’m a native southwestern girl, I confess I’m not really into southwestern decor. However, the Flowering Cactus Product Medley caught my attention in the Jan-June Catalog with a fresh palette and adorable images and fonts that really made me want to play with it.

Enter the #GDP293 color challenge with 3 new In Colors, and they’ve got me reaching for that Flowering Cactus…

While stamping the background, it’s not going to look good until you are almost finished stamping…don’t worry if it looks a mess, it will all work out fine!

This is the type of card you have to intentionally mail: Can you think of a friendship that has become richer through the years because you’ve been through a lot of “sticky” situations and “dry” seasons? Write down those memories and be grateful that you are closer because of them.
