There was a LOT of green this week and at first I wasn't sure how to approach it.. the Irish in me was thrilled..!! hee hee... and that lead me back to my paternal Great Grandparents who were both 2nd Generation Irish Immigrants.. these are people who worked incredibly hard as farmers and raised their families, so very far away from their homeland....They stayed together as a community, through Church, music, dance and wonderful story-telling... I feel so blessed to even have a few pictures of them...
Thanks for Looking!!

Comment by Jenny Evans on April 3, 2012 at 1:07pm Great layout, Debbi! Love your layering and your fussy-cutting!!
Gorgeous layout and such precious photos! Love the balloons, camera and all the layering.
Comment by Jenn Kennedy on March 31, 2012 at 11:44pm Debbi!!! I didn't realise that you were Canadian, and from PEI to boot! For some reason, I thought you were from the UK. We're practically neighbours ;)
What a wonderful vintage layout you've created here. I love the papers you chose and how you layered them with the embellishments and photos. Visually so interesting. TFS:)
Comment by Debbie Standard on March 27, 2012 at 2:22pm Loving all your vintage on this from the photos to the papers and details!
Comment by Helen Wallace on March 25, 2012 at 10:46pm Love, love, love this Debbie. Your family history is similar to my own and this really tugs at my heart strings. Superb fussy cutting, layering and textures make this a standout for me :)
Comment by Jennifer Shaw on March 25, 2012 at 11:04am A stunning LO! The layering is amazing!! My maternal grandparents came to Montreal, Canada in the late 1920's. I would love to go to Ireland one day. It looks so beautiful there. :)
Love the vintage images and photos you have used Debbie, it is a fantastic layout.
Comment by Laura Mooney on March 24, 2012 at 5:00pm I LOVE the old fashioned feel of this!
