Lilliputian Leprechauns

So...do you remember that wee shirt I so delicately snipped and then promptly lost? Here is the reminder of how tiny it was/is....


I decided I would find a 'home' for wee pieces. So...here is my solution. The low-tech Lilliputian Lid! New Year's resolution: When it is cut and is only slightly larger than a pea it must be securely placed into the Tiny Top! No more pieces on the loose!


Since I was lucky enough to find the shirt (shout out to St. Anthony patron saint of lost items!) I thought I should put it to work with another card.


Luck of the Irish
