Lucky Shamrock



I am sure all of you know the method for making a 4 leaf clover, right?  Four hearts connected at the bottoms = a lucky shamrock. I started off with a scrap piece of wood that I drilled two holes in for the wire to hang and spray painted.  I used corrugated cardboard for the base and painted it green first then topped it off with Champagne spray paint.  I am loving the effect it gives to other colors. I then painted my little wood hearts two shades of green and outlined them in the opposite shades.  I then used a Sharpie to outline the edges of the base and this is what I ended up with....what do you think?
