St Patrick's Day Birthday Pop Up Card

For all of you celebrating a birthday on this day of shamrocks and all things Irish, here's a card for you.  This card is similar to the pop up Valentine's Day birthday card I made, only it's a bit more complex.
Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes, Beary Best Friends, So Happy for You, Happy Moments (retired)
Inks: Soft Suede, Markers of various colours, Garden Green, Basic Black
Papers: Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Garden Green, Early Espresso, Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Various pieces of designer paper for vest of Owl
Accessories: Two Step Owl Punch, Heart to Heart punch to make the shamrocks, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Stampin Dimensionals, Green glitter (made by combining Garden green reinker with dazzling diamonds), Oval Punch, Build a Cupcake Punch (candle on cake)

I apologize for the fuzziness of this picture.  I took it twice, but couldn't get it clearer.  A new camera is definitely on my wish list for Christmas next year.
The little shamrock on the owl with the orange vest is from "So Happy for You", and I used that same stamp to make the designer paper panel at the bottom of the card.  I stamped the shamrock with Garden Green in a random pattern, followed by Happy St. Patrick's day (from Teeny Tiny Wishes)
