Lucky Cows and Lucky Charms with Joy Clair!!

Hi guys!!
We are showcasing the Lucky Charm Stamp set by Joy Clair.
This is such a fun set.  I put a funny spin on it using the 4 leaf clover
 as my focal idea for my scrapbook page.  Take a look~

Most of the stamped images were stamped on white cardstock and trimmed out.
They were colored with alcohol markers.  The small clovers are stamped
 directly on the pattern paper and then colored in.  The images
 were arranged  and then adhered to the pattern with dimensional foam
squares.



The story of the cows and the clover :):) It's a good one~
