St. Patrick's Day Printables for a Mini Gallery Wall

St. Patrick's Day is less than 2 weeks away, so it's time to get decorating, right? I have seen some great decorating inspiration on the Spring Craft Blog Hop, from all the co-hosts and the almost 100 entries so far. I have always wanted a fun gallery wall full of photos, printables, and other decorative things, so for St. Patrick's Day I though I would start one! I bought a variety of white frames in 8x10 and 5x7 sizes. I created a couple of printables, and finished the look off with green polka dot scrapbook paper and a swatch of themed fabric.

I plan on changing out the printables and fabric with the seasons, and eventually they will be filled with family photos, so I felt like I will get a lot of bang for my buck that I spent on the photo frames. Since it's March, I went with green and shamrocks as my uniting factor. I was lucky enough to have the scrapbook paper and fabric already, so the only thing I had to buy for this project was the photo frames.

I created each printable based on classic Irish blessings. Now, when you see some of these up close, please don't point out my flaws when it comes to framing! I realize a couple of these aren't cut perfectly. I tried to frame them the best I could (I'm not a professional, geez!). When cutting and framing printables like these, an L-square ruler would have been very helpful, in addition to a paper cutter. The sizes are in the descriptions below, and all three of these printables are PDF files for you to print out and use for personal use only.
