Retiring Favorite – Pot of Gold Card

Pot of Gold Card

POT OF GOLD CARD – CARD 4 IN MY GUMBALL SERIES

From gumball machine to pot of gold! So many possibilities for the Stampin Up Gumball Greetings bundle: stamps and Gumball Machine dies. I combined the bundle with the Brilliant Rainbow dies and the Cloud Punch to make this “luck of the Irish” alternate card. Great for St Patrick’s Day and beyond.

I have instructions and more tutorials in the gumball series  below.

I made 2 versions of this card. Which one do you like better?
I like the Mother of Pearl the best, but they are both cool.

   
The coins were made from the Gumball Machine dies. I attached an Adhesive Sheet to the back of Gold Foil scrap to create them.


Use the Brights Assortment of card stock and the Brilliant Rainbow dies to create the rainbow.

I used the In Color Shimmer Vellum in Pale Papaya for this card. The clouds are from the Cloud Punch and Supple Shimmer specialty paper.
