Luck of the Irish Challenge & Deconstructed Sketch #43

Hi blog friends! I've decided to give this whole blog thing another try and I'm starting off with this fun Saint Patty's day card. I'm entering this in two challenges: The luck of the Irish by Just A Scrappin's Blog and Deconstructed sketch #43. I used the deconstructed sketch #43 to build my card.
I used papers from Lawn Fawn's Bright Side and On the Bright side from My Mind's Eye along with some bazzill cardstock. I used this pretty Waltzingmouse digi shamrock stamp and sentiment and cut out using Spellbinders beaded Ovals nestabilities. I used some gorgeous ribbon that I purchased at Ribbon Carousel around the beaded oval frame. I colored the stamp with these copics: G07,G09,G12,YG67, YG95, YG97, B000, BV11, BV13 I finished it off with a few pearls and a cute little bow from that same ribbon that I used on the spellbinder's frame. I used some vintage photo distress ink and added some faux stitching for a more embellished look. Well thats my card for today! Hope you enjoyed it!
