The hostess for this week's Doubledog Dare Challenge is joanne (sleepyinseattle) who Dared us to make a St. Patrick's Day card. Easy Peasy. Please join us, and put DDC in your keyword. We do the DDC each Tuesday...check us out every week.
This card is also for the MMTPT81. We are off to New Orleans for our teaparty. I, for one, will be eating LOTS of cake, but I'll have to take off my mask to do it. Martie McGraw, our hostess, is Irish, which puts her in the minority in the Big Easy. She needs all the Irish friends she can get! I have my green mask, and some green gems to make her feel more comfortable, but made a concession to the French Quarter by adding the Fleur-de-lis punched strip. Just for Martie, I'll be bringing Irish soda bread to go with our tea, and something Irish that's a bit stronger to add to it, just for her!!!
Please join us at the teaparty by putting MMTPT81 in your keyword.
If you would like to see the rest of the sentiment inside my card, you'll have to go to my blog. It's worth the trip, if I do say so myself!

Love it! The rest of the sentiment IS worth the trip to your great blog. I may need to try the DDC myself. I always forget to look for it. Thanks for reminding us.

What a cute card, Anne! Love the fleur de lis borders and the fun sentiment (inside and out!) LOL! I think I'll mosey on over for a little Irish soda bread and whatever else Irish you've got there!

That's a lot of class to add to such a funny card. I was almost fooled. It really is a pretty card and I love that senti. Bring a little of that strong stuff for me too.

Great card and a trip to your blog is definitely worth the trip!
I'll be looking for you at the party - I could use a nip or two of your irish whiskey for my coffee!
