Hi, I'm Holly Silva, and I've been a craft expert for about 15 years now, a today I'm going to show you how a really simple St. Patrick's Day craft. So, here we have a piece of green construction paper. You can use any color you want, I like green, this one has some marbling on it, which adds some fun, little effects to it. But you can make it white, and nice, vibrant card. As with all cards, you want to take your ruler and make the edge, the fold edge, nice and crisp. It just looks clean, we want clean lines, because clean lines make everything look neat. Doesn't matter how messy the design is, if you have clean lines, it's neat, a little tip. O.k., so, on this particular card, we're just going to grab a marker and write, Happy St., Happy St. Patrick's Day, o.k. Now, you can be as creative as you like with these markers and with these designs. If you can see there, I like do this like, extra, little double shading, it makes a little shadow and it really makes the letters pop,. No matter what you're doing, it makes the letters pop, and there we go. Now, with this, all you want to, all you need to do is, just follow whatever side you choose to follow, you follow the same side on every letter, just like that. That's the outside you can make it a lot prettier. You can, for example, make a pot of gold right here, pot of golds, pots of gold are usually, are really fun, a really fun design to do with St. Patty's Day gifts. Now, just grab your yellow marker or you can use yellow construction paper, if you'd like, and cut some little pieces of yellow for your pot of gold, and stick them to the top there. That will actually be a lot of fun. And you can even cut out a piece of black construction paper and make it your pot here, that would be really nice. I really like to draw right now, so I am just showing you the marker way of doing it, alright, there, a nice, little effect. And now, you open it up and say, you're sending it to your friend. Put a nice, little greeting inside and say, Luck Of The Irish to you, or you know, something, something cool and something you know, a little St. Patty's Day cheesy. We like the cheese on St. Patty's Day. And fold it up, send it to your friend and they're going to love it, because it was made out of love from you. Or, maybe just, everybody loves just, it's fun, fun, fun, fun, that's what you want to do. Anyway, have a great time and we will see you next time.
