Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hello! This is Sukie and I'm back for my guest designer post with this fun St. Patrick's Day card.  The Lucky Leprechaun at the focal point of my card is one of the adorable dies from the Valentine's release.
For my card I went with a monochromatic theme with the different shades of green, however, I used a white background to ensure the leprechaun would pop on my card.  A few gold accents provided the perfect amount of sparkle to the leprechaun's accessories.  
The white panel was cut with the Cottage Cutz Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangle Set which was layered on another panel cut from the Stitched Rectangle Set.
The papers for my standard A2 card base are from the DCWV Double Sided Cardstock stack.  The double sided sheet provided a contrasting look to the background.  I used a punch for the circle which was sized perfectly for the sentiment.
The sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms (retired) Dancing in Circles stamp set and it was heat embossed on the circle.  The heat embossing gives the sentiment an extra bold look. 
Here are the dies I used on my card available in the shop:

Such a cute card! I love that you used two different rectangle dies. They look great together.
