She suggested adding the Summer Sun circle in the O of "GO" to tie the colors together. It does add the finishing touch. Thanks, Kimberley.
The top card uses Naturals White as the base card. The bottom card uses Summer Sun as the base card. It is a bit more gaudy, don't you think? It is tempered somewhat by the Certainly Celery cardstock, which is a current color. The top one - I'm using up some of my stash of a retired color. Mint Mist, I think it was called. I really do like the color and would love to see it come back, but it has been out of the line for several years, so - probably not.
I did another card like these but in my hurry to get it in the mail to beat a deadline, I forgot to add the ribbon before pasting down the sentiment, so I tied a knot in the center and placed it under his chin as a bow tie. That was cute, too.
What you can't see very well here is that the green CS has been textured using my Big Shot. It's a nice touch. The Leprechaun is made entirely with punches except for the strip of Basic Black and square of Summer Sun of the hat band.
Happy Stampin'
