St Patricks Day

St Patricks Day is a day that I'm am well aware of with a daughter that loves all things Irish.  At the moment she is trying to google to find a ceilidh dance this weekend - without success .  She should be going to bed as it is after 10pm!  Anyway, here is a St Patricks Day card I created:

The card is for the challenges at:

I have had this background paper for years and not done anything with it.  The intention originally was to use it to scrap some ceilidh photos of my daughter but that didn't happen!!

I have used an image from My PaperCrafting World as the centre piece and die-cut it with an interesting shaped Spellbinders Die.  The shape of the die enabled me to add some rhinestones for interest.  The buttons used are a mixed bag from my stash - different sizes and colours and hard to find two the same!

The green satin bow has been tied using some ribbon that has also been sitting in my stash for some time.  So not much new about this card except the image and die.
