With all the wonderful "green" and "St. Patty's Day" challenges going on, I wanted to make another card before next St. Patty's Day! :)
I love this vintage Irish Music Sheet paper from The Graphics Fairy. {I am lovin' this site! Can't ya' tell!} When I saw it, I knew I wanted to make something with it. I used some Melissa Frances rub-ons, tea-stained crocheted heart from Little Pink Studio, shamrock made out of punched hearts, glitter and a pearl, seam binding ribbon, and that beautiful crocheted trim. After I put the trim along the side, the card reminded me of a book, hence the Saint Patrick's Day "bookmark" sticking out of the top. And I didn't even use any patterned papers! Only Bazzill cs and Kraft paper.
I was inspired by the following challenges:
♥ The Kraft Journal: Saint Patty's Day or Green
♥ Papercraft Star: St. Patrick's Day inspired project using this gorgeous photo as your inspiration
Have a wonderful weekend! And a belated Happy St. Patrick's Day to all my Irish friends out there! :)
Hugs and lots of love...

Beautiful card!
I love your site, especially the St Patrick day stuff :-)
I love this card, I think you won with it on Kraft Journal..Congrats!!!
What an absolutely gorgeous card!
Never fear! Those of us who are lucky enough to have Irish blood in our veins celebrate being Irish everyday. And, let me congratulate you on getting the shamrock right!!! It's one of my pet peeves on a St. Pat's card to find a depiction of clover (4 leaves). Oh, that and depictions or innuendos about Irish drinkers. Aaarrggggghhhhhhhhh!!
