Got Green? Also, save $340!

I have been trying to find a little time to work on a St.Patrick's Day class.  I've been so busy this week I haven't even posted anything since Monday.  I tried last night when I got home but kept falling asleep so I finally gave up.  I made this card tonight.  It changed several times before I was satisfied with it.  I'm still debating restamping the shamrocks because I didn't have my Pear Pizazz ink with me when I made it and used Wild Wasabi instead.  It doesn't look too bad but I'm thinking to make the middle one Pear Pizazz and leave the other 2 Wild Wasabi would look better. 

I used the beautiful Twitterpated DSP for theb3 strips of paper.  I tried the stripe one for the middle piece but it just didn't look right so I changed it for the pink.  Much better!

I had different ribbon on at first too but decided the white would look better.  I realized after I had already adhered the shamrocks that I had my Pear Pizazz marker with me so I colored the words "Got Green" with it.  I did one word at a time and stamped them separately so I could punch them out with the tiny tag punch and tie them to the ribbon.

No wonder I CASE so often.  I don't  have to think and it takes less time to copy!  All in all I like the way this card turned out though.  I have another St Patrick's card I'll show later when I can get a better picture.  It was nearly midnight when I took this one and the colors aren't all that great with just the overhead light.  I also have green toenails with white shamrocks.  If they aren't chipped too bad I reckon I'll take a quick picture of them to post one March 17th!
