March THEME Challenge - St-Patrick's Day

[Cassel]

 

In March, the theme is ST-PATRICKS DAY. Do you have pictures or stories surrounding St-Patrick's Day? Is that even something you celebrate? If so, how? Share your stories in pictures or in words.

Add stories to those photos but you know that you can also tell stories without photos!

Let's go!

Post your project in the gallery.

I scrapped the only photos I have from anything related to St. Patrick's Day back in 2012. Also, even though the grandparents of my Dad's mother came from County Kerry Ireland, St. Patrick's Day was not something that was celebrated by Dad and his siblings when growing up.

My 2012 layout made with a kit that has long been retired. I'm not sure if the designer is even still designing!

In 2008 my basketball team traveled to Hot Springs, Arkansas for a tournament. It was over the St. Patrick's Day weekend. Hot Springs has all sorts of fountains which use water from the springs. It is supposed to have healing properties and other benefits. We drank a good bit of it...not sure that I noticed any benefit. Most of my basketball pages were created 10X 8 so they could be easily printed.

Hi Cindy,  my daughter, daughter-in-law, and 3 grandchildren (all girls) went there quite some years ago - we did a Ya-Ya-Sister weekend.  We did do the baths - the water feels good.  I also went there with a friend of mine and we did not go in the pools that time, but we did do "crystal mining" and then went to the diamond mine to poke around in the offall from the mine.  Diamonds have actually been found in the slag.

I I used what I learned in the shadow box master class and created this using (Fairy-Moon-Shadow-Box-47020851) from Creativefabrica and the shamrock in her hand was created from (Layer-st-Patricks-day-leaf-25320553). Now my Irish ancestors can either say well done or turn over in their graves.
