St. Patty Blocks

I love St. Patrick's Day!
 I love the how my house gets little green specks of cuteness around it this time of year! 
I have been pinning so many awesome ideas...super cute printables too!  
I can't wait to use them!

( If you want to check my St. Patrick's Day board out on Pinterest  you can check out all the fun things I've found)

Anyway,
 Kierste at Brown Paper Packages made some super cute conversation blocks.
 Yep, and I HAD to make my own version of them, because they are just too cute!

then I got to thinking..
"Ooh, I should do some St. Patrick blocks!

 So that's what I did! 


 Here's what you need: 
-wood cut into 3 1/2 X 3 1/2 (Square)
 -white paint
 -green paint
 -sandpaper 
-brush 
-vinyl

 I use the font Patrick and chose the words Irish, Kiss Me, Lucky .
I painted the blocks white, let them dry, then gave them a coat of green. I sanded them so the white would come through.  Lastly, I cut the vinyl using my silhouette....and WALAH! 

* If you don't have silhouette, you could use stickers 
or
another great idea would be to print the font out on a fun St. Patrick-y Scrapbook Paper and then mod podge it to the block!  Sand around the edges....

Ooh, I just might be doing some Easter ones... (wink)

Have a great day!
