What a terrific design/decor site! I chose Citrine Dreams. I see several others I'd like to try so maybe I'll have time to squeeze in one more.
Teddy was stamped twice, colored w/ markers and cut out. I layered the extra head and right arm/leg on top of the base image for a little dimension. I stamped Everything Irish w/ rainbow ink and die cut w/ an oval die. I used a larger, oval shaped die for the green and since my greeting is unmounted, I was able to curve it slightly to fit the shape.
I stamped the woven plaid w/ the same ink for the background, then stamped the little shamrock on top. On the darker green, I inked the woven plaid w/ a dk green marker and used this for the little brad like circles and little shamrock punch outs. The finished card measures 5.5 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! Close ups are HERE . My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.

Perfect card for St. Patrick's Day. I think your little bear is saying, "Forget the elusive pot of gold and bring on the corn beef and cabbage." Like how you stamped on the stamped bkgr.
