TAG ALONG BLOG CHALLENGE #80: ST. PATRICK'S DAY

Today's Tag Along Blog Challenge is all about St. Patrick's Day, the Irish, and those who claim to be Irish!  Since I have nothing in my stamp stash that is even close to being Irish, I called upon The Graphics Fairy for assistance.  And, she did not disappoint!  The Graphics Fairy is a resource for crafters that provides 4,000+ free images, tutorials and decor ideas.  

 I used a Ranger #10 manila tag.  I adhered some green (could I have used any other color?) patterned paper from my scrapbooking stash to the tag, then created a bit of interest by stamping Stampotique Originals "Design Cube" by stamp designer France Papillon.

 I used some burlap and twine from Petaloo's Fancy Trims.  The sentiment I "plucked" from Pinterest, and I used Wendy Vecchi's Fern Green Archival Ink from Ranger to edge both my tag and the words.

I hope you will find some time this week to play along with us at the Tag Along Blog Challenge.  And, I thank you for stopping by today and for your comments.  Both are appreciated.
