Shamrock Frame

So here is yet another St. Patrick's Day decoration idea- and the best part of this idea is that it cost nothing!


Materials:
Frame
Paper
Stamps
Scissors
Shamrock Cut out
Ink Pad


I got my shamrock here.


Cut your paper to size, my frame was a 4x6 so that's what I did.


Center your shamrock and trace.


Stamp your word around the interior of the shamrock over and over and over.....

Wait for your ink to dry and then erase the shamrock. Then if you want stamp the same word in a different color below. Make sure to clean your stamps first- I use the cleaner from Close to my Heart- it works really well- I'm sure others work just as well.

Frame it and enjoy! You could really do this in any shape with any word- like a peace sign with your tween's name, a baseball with your little boy's name (oh cute!) the possibilities are endless!

    That is totally cute to do it in different ones with names. I think I might just have to do that.
