Stampin' Up! Happy Thoughts St. Patrick's Day Card

 TGIF peeps! Today's card is brought to you by the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set. It's a "thinking of you" card that I hope will bring a little smile to the recipient.

My design was inspired by one of my team mates, Shirley G. Measurements are listed at the end of this post.

My ribbon is retired and I used some retired DSP that I received as a gift so I'm not sure what it is. (Mary will know for sure!) The shamrock was created from parts of the inside hearts (pic below) using the Stitched Be Mine Dies. The bling is Rhinestone Basic Jewels. The "ON" is from a retired stamp set, Botanicals for You, and the "St. Patrick's Day" is from the current A Wish for Everything Stamp Set. The colors are Mossy Meadow, Granny Apple Green and Old Olive. With many greens, I am entering my card in these challenges:

• Fusion - Green

• The Card Concept 150 with a Clean and Layered Look. inspired by the green flower pot.

and Just Add Ink #545 Colour - Shades of Green.

The inside uses the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set again and the Stitched Be Mine Dies.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
