This very simple
quarter-fold card is available as a free download from
The Craft Cafe. All you have to do is print it---and you can print
as many as you want! If you are having an Irish Stew and Green Beer
party, then this can easily be used as an invitation.
This card and envelope can be printed
on plain white computer paper, card stock, or lightly colored paper
(like ivory or very soft green). Card stock is heavier than computer
paper and is best for cards that you are going to further decorate with
markers or glue and glitter.
After you download the free St. Patrick's
Day quarter-fold card, download the free envelope:

Once you've folded the
card and made the envelope, why not decorate the outside of the envelope
with this "Wearin' o' the Green" shamrock?
You can get the shamrock as a free
printable from
The Craft Cafe.
