Had idea to create a food creation for a person
with a birthday on St. Patrick's Day. Wanted to
make the Shamrocks look like cookies on a cookie
sheet.

Used 2 different Cricut cartridges. The cookie sheet
image is on From My Kitchen. The Shamrocks are
from Designer's Calendar,

Kept the colors mostly green with exception of the shiny
silver cardstock for the cookie sheet sheet. Used Kraft
cardstock regular brown for the bottom of the Shamrock
cookie & Kraft green cardstock for the top of the Shamrock
cookie.

Made the cookies the size big enough for the stamped
sentiment to fit on them. Used foam to give the cookies 3D
dimension look on the cookie sheet

Attached the ribbon which is a recycled/reused ribbon from
a Christmas candy pkg that had a sparkle snowflake attached
to it for the right shade of green.
