St. Patrick's Day Home Decor - Dressed Up Subway Art

Hi everyone!  I hope you're all enjoying your day!  Today I'd like to share with you a bit of home decor.  I've always loved the holiday subway art I've seen posted on various blogs and, since I don't have much decor for St. Patrick's day, I thought I might dress up the St. Patty's subway art I found HERE  at eighteen25.  If you're not familiar with eighteen25, you should stop by their blog.  The blog is written by three sisters who blog about fun stuff....MANY great projects and ideas here!

First, I printed the art at 8 1/2 x 11 and found a white frame for it.  Then I just dressed it up a bit with a couple of Cricut cuts and some ribbon.  Easy peasy!!  My new Peachy Keen wide-eyed kids stamps made their debut on the pot of gold...yea!

Recipe
White 8 1/2 x 11 inch frame

I'm entering this project into four challenge:
Crafting with Cristina: Challenge #18 - St. Patty's theme - Create a St. Patrick's Day project using some green.
Creative Cutter Room: Design Time Thursday - Lucky to Have You - Create a project based on the theme "Lucky to Have You" and incorporate four required elements (a button, the color green, a pot of gold, and a leaf).
My Creative Time's Throwback Thursday - St. Patrick's Day Theme - Using an "older" Cricut cartridge, create a St. Patrick's Day project.

Enjoy the day!
