St Patrick's Day in July!


Hope everyone has a great weekend! My hubby turns 50 tomorrow. We took him out to eat tonight and tomorrow we are taking him to a Major League baseball game so I thought I would make a card tonight since I have to work Sunday. I made this card using the Midnight Madness Sketch #64 and the Play Date Cafe #40-black, white and a splash of green. I love this Irish Blessing by My Sentiments Exactly. I embossed it with green embossing powder. I used pop dots to make it stand out. I added pearls, ribbon and shamrock buttons. Thanks for stopping by!
