St Patrick’s Day is one of those holidays that come and go so quickly. If you are like me you don’t always have time for a full decor change every season. I thought I would share with you a couple quick and easy projects to throw into your decor for a little showing of the green.

I’ve had this Cricut Machine for some time now but to be quite honest I was slightly intimidated and so I left it in the box. I am so glad that I finally bit the bullet and started to explore. What I found out was that it wasn’t intimidating at all! Of course I have a lot more to learn (and believe me I will because I am hooked) but cutting the shamrocks for this simple project was quick and easy. You can find some great tutorials on Youtube if you too need help getting started.

The Cricut Explore Air hooks up to your computer (it is wireless) so you design right there on your screen! As a side note, do you ever notice that I’m not big on perfect photography? I should have removed my measuring tape and diet Dr. Pepper but to tell you the truth it’s all part of the process. I don’t create projects in perfectly staged steps and I just take you on the journey with me. Sorry for the distractions 😉
