Ombre Four Leaf Clover Craft

February 29, 2012 by Crystal Owens 20 Comments

Today’s the big switch..you know, to WordPress! Sorry if things look a little funky over the next few days. Hopefully it doesn’t take long for me to figure it all out. If you’re a GFC follower please consider following through RSS or by email, because starting tomorrow GFC will be disabled on my blog. Thanks again for being a reader. :)

I’d like to share with you an easy ombre four leaf clover canvas I made for St. Patrick’s Day. I originally shared this over at Darling Doodles. Do you remember my Valentine’s Canvas? Well, I’m reusing the same canvas since I made everything removable. I love when I can reuse craft supplies, which saves money and there’s no need to find a place to store another seasonal decoration. 


To make your own you will need scrapbook paper, a four leaf clover punch or die cut machine, glue dots, and a canvas or frame. Disregard the gingham paper in the picture, I ended up liking the solid colors only.

 Using a small hole punch I added mini green brads in the center of each clover. This step isn’t necessary but I liked the look of the brads.
 I then used small glue dots to adhere the clovers to the canvas. This makes them easily removable in case you want to reuse your canvas.
Then stick them onto the canvas and you’re done. I didn’t measure the spacing, but you could bust out a ruler and make sure they line up correctly.
 It looked a little bare so I added some green raffia to finish it off. I think it completes the whole look. If you have an extra frame on hand you could use that instead of a canvas by adding scrapbook paper to the glass, then the clovers on top.
I don’t usually decorate for St. Patrick’s Day, but I thought this year it’d be fun to make some decor for the next few weeks. I’m not going all out but I do have a few things up. I’ll share my banner with you later this week.

    These is so pretty! I like the idea of using brads to embellish but not actually attach the shamrocks to your canvas.

    This is really pretty. The little flowers would make great decoration for a package as well, I think.
