O'Shamrock

Just made an "Iris Folded" shamrock card for my sister.  Especially fitting since we are part Irish!
Instead of paper for the folding I used ribbon.  It looks great but it is more difficult to attach because it tends to warp and doesn't "stick" as good as paper.  However, I like the effect and thought it was worth the extra effort.  I surrounded the edge of the shamrock with a long green sticker.  This part of the card was then attached to the base card.
 
On the inside I added an Irish Blessing.  The border of the light green backing was edged with an EKSuccess edger punch (English Ivy).

  1. Beautiful results on this Kathy.. What did you end up using to adhere the ribbon? I was thinking Scor-tape would be perfect, but haven't tried this yet..
