mSB - Pair up Project!

During the month of March we paired up for projects over at myStampBox.  I was paired up with the lovely and talented Ally.  For our projects, and since it was on St. Patrick's day, we decided to use that as our theme for the post.  I created a glass using the mini alphas set and the Lots of Dots alphabets.

Close up....

Ally created a gorgeous St. Patrick's day themed watering can, be sure to check out our blog post here to see her beautiful creation!  Happy St. Patrick's Day!!  May the luck of the irish be with you!!
