Paper Cutz Challenge #81 St. Patrick's Day Treat Cup




I'm not Irish nor do I know anyone who is Irish, but Mary asked the Paper Cutz DT to create a card, layout or project this week for St. Patrick's day.  I recently obtained round plastic treat cups from  Stampin' Up and was anxious to use them.  I knew I could cut any size circle I wanted with my Cricut so began to think about how I could go about it.  I started looking through my Cricut cartridges for something circular that I could incorporated into my treat cups.  I found this particular cut on the Celebrate With a Flourish Lite Cricut cartridge.  After cutting and discarding a few scraps of paper I managed to get the look I was going for.  The hole for the treat cup is 1.75".  It was just a matter of getting the circle to line up on the paper where I needed it to be for the "O" in the sentiment. As you can see, I placed the "O" on top of the treat cup.  I filled the treat cup with white M & Ms so the green "O" would show up.    

I hope you're able to join Paper Cutz this week with a little luck o' the Irish of your own.  Glad you've visited today.  Just a reminder that I have some blog candy up for grabs.  You can see that post here.  I'll be drawing a winner tomorrow so you still have 24 hrs. to leave a comment on that post.
