Gather papers and, using your die-cut of choice, cut your paper.
Layer your papers and cut hole to run twine through. Add your ribbons and bows.
Adhere your snippets of green doily or any other layer you would like to add. Then add your shamrocks (found easily in any holiday secion of big box store).
Add your “lucky” sentiments with clothepins and add some florals/flowers if you like.
