Are you wearing your green today?

Are you wearing your green today?

If you haven't left the house yet, hurry, run back, or you'll get pinched today!

I remember my Grandma always being excited about this holiday and how cute she was about it. Her father came from Ireland when he was 16. I will think about her a lot today.

I made this kit to scrap all of those heritage layouts about Irish genealogy.
Use this code for 25% off through the 27th of March: O Irish
The kit can be found in my store as an add-on to my heritage kit.

I made a comment in my e-mails that

"I am still at awe at how long it takes to design. Those really good designers aren’t paid enough!"

Eugenia wrote me back with a great quote and I just had to share it with others.

It only takes you a long time because of the quality of your work and the pride you take in it :)

Here is a sample of this kit for you to download, the celtic cross.
This is not 4shared, but a faster download, so please leave comments here before clicking!

*****************

I love many of the Irish proverbs, poems, and quotes. Here are the ones from my other blog for you to enjoy on this holiday. Who knows, they may be great for your scrapbooking pages!

The Irish sure were wise, weren't they? Do you think I inherited any of that wisdom?

***************
May the face of every good news and the back of every bad news be toward us.
***************
Like the goodness of the five loaves and two fishes,
Which God divided among the five thousand men,
May the blessing of the king who so divided be upon our share of this common
meal.
****************
May the roof above us never fall in, and may we friends gathered below never
fall out.
*************
May the strength of three be in your journey.
****************
Heres to you and yours and to mine and ours and if mine and ours ever come
across you and yours I hope you and yours will do as much for mine and ours
as mine and ours have done for you and yours.
****************
May you have warm words on a cold evening a full moon on a dark night and
the road downhill all the way to your door.
*********************
May there be a generation of children on the children of your children.
*********************
Heres a health to your enemies' enemies.
******************
May you live to be a hundred years with one extra year to repent.
*********************
May I see you grey and combing your childrens hair.
********************
May the lord keep you in his hand and never close his fist too tight on you.
******************
God gives every bird its food,
but He does not throw it into its nest.
*********************
We drink to your coffin. May it be built from the wood of a hundred year old
oak tree that I shall plant tomorrow.
*****************
May the good Lord take a liking to you...
But not too soon!
*******************
There are good ships,
and there are wood ships,
The ships that sail the sea.
But the best ships, are friendships,
And may they always be.
***********************
May the hinges of our friendship never grow rusty.
**************************
May those that love us, love us.
And those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if he doesn't turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles,
So we'll know them by their limping.
***************
May misfortune follow you the rest of your life, and never catch up.
************************
May you never make an enemy
When you could make a friend -
Unless you meet a fox among your chickens.
*********************
May you have the hindsight to know where you've been,
the foresight to know where you're going,
and the insight to know when you've gone too far.
*********************
May Shamrocks bloom in your backyard!
**********************
May your glass be ever full.
May the roof over your head be always strong.
And may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead.
***************
Life is like a cup of tea,
it's all in how you make it!
*******************
I complained that I had no shoes
Until I met a man who had no feet.
*************
Grant me a bit of humor, Lord,
The saving grace to see a joke
To win some happiness from life,
And pass it on to other folks.

**********************************
May your blessings outnumber
The shamrocks that grow.
And may trouble avoid you
Wherever you go.

***************************
As you slide down the banisters of life,
may the splinters never point the wrong way.

*******************************
May the blessings of each day
be the blessing you need most.

*************************
May you be poor in misfortune,
Rich in blessings,
Slow to make enemies,
And quick to make friends,
But rich or poor, quick or slow,
May you know nothing but happiness
From this day forward

***************************
May you enjoy the four greatest blessings:
Honest work to occupy you.
A hearty appetite to sustain you.
A good woman to love you.
And a wink form the God above.

**************************
If you find yourslef on a stony path,
may you have strong shoes.

**********************

May you have the hindsight to know where you've been,
the foresight to know where you're going.

***********************************
Always remember to forget
The friends that proved untrue.
But never forget to remember
Those that have stuck by you.

*********************
May you live as long as you want,
And never want as long as you live.

*******************************

Dance as if no one were watching,
Sing as if no one were listening,
And live every day as if it were your first.

******************************

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again,
May Gold hold you in the hollow of His Hand.
