Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!! This is one of my favorite holidays. The kids at school get so excited about it. They are all decked out in green and a lot of the younger classes set a trap to try to catch the leprechaun that shows up every year at our school. They get necklaces or small trinkets to wear from him. Everyone seems to spot him lurking during the day. He takes the gold they leave for him, does some pretty crazy things to their rooms and never manages to get caught!

I made this last minute card to give to one of my friends at school. She is always saying on St. Patrick's Day every year that everyone has a little Irish in them on this special day! When I saw this Sassy Cheryl cute bear digi I thought of the sentiment Beary Irish and knew it was perfect for her. I gave it to her today and she loved it. I was so glad I made it for her.
