St. Patrick's birthday card

My mother's birthday is on St. Patrick's day, so for a card challenge on a scrap board I made her this card. The image is from a vintage greeting card I found online and turned into a coloring page/digistamp in photoshop. I stamped the ribbon. I also had to get creative to turn the Happy St. Patrick's Day stamp into happy St. Patrick's birthday.

St. Patrick's Day card

This is actually made as a birthday card - my mom's birthday is on St. Patrick's day. Just about the only reason I've bought St. Paddy/shamrock stamps. I deliberated and passed up the stamps I used for the background but luckily found them again before they were all gone and snagged 'em up! Stamps: Studio G series 41 (JoAnn's) and series 44 (AC Moore); cricut cartridges: Heritage and Paper Doll Dress Up; Fiskars apron lace border punch; cuttlebug d'vine swirls folder; Martha Stewart flock The shamrock was flocked first, then embossed. Pop-dotted for some additional dimension.
