All is green - A St. Patrick's Day Card

I'm not Irish, but this community has very strong Irish roots.  Today was the St. Patrick's Day parade - wet, cold and rainy as it was, so I thought I'd made a card to commemorate the event.
This green card was actually a challenge put out by Stampin Royalty.




As indicated, the card is all green except for the first layer, which is Very Vanilla.
I used the Big Shot small enveloper, and Top Note Die, the edges of both of which were liberally sponged with garden green.  After putting a piece of garden green paper through the embossing folder, I punched out hearts (new heart punch) and arranged them to look like 3 leaf clovers.  The clovers on the envelope were covered with Crystal Effects and sprinkled with Celery green glitter.  The sentiment was from "Teeny Tiny Sayings".  Happy St. Patrick's Day from a lady born in Holland.
