Today's Color Challenge (gold, white, green) & yesterday's CAS challenge (Luck of the Irish), seem destined to go together. For my easy card, I used gold & emerald embossing powders to heat emboss the Good Luck circle onto mirror gold card stock.
These were all die cut w/ circle dies & a couple of them were layered onto a larger, fancy edge circle die cut. I also gold embossed some of the clover centers of the image onto green c/s & used a small 4 leaf clover punch to punch them out. The punch wasn't an exact match, but it was close enough. The white frame was die cut, the greeting added & I had a piece of dry embossed green c/s left over from something & since it had clovers & shamrocks on it, I put it behind the opening.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Oh my word, those coins are fantastic, as well as the whole card design! The coins look like real arcade tokens with that amazing heat and dry embossing. Love the 4 leaf clovers with the gold embossing too! Fabulous card!
