Saint Patricks Day has always been one of my favorite holidays and feast days. Not only because my family is very proudly Irish- but Saint Patricks Day is the day before my birthday- and when I was little, I pretended everyone was just celebrating with me a day early. I’ve always loved the celebration of all things green (except green beer- that is just an abomination)- but this year I wanted to make a fun printable that would last long after Saint Patricks Day, and decided to go for the gold and a lovely Irish saying that is great year-round. This May the Road Rise With You Free Printable is adorable as home decor- a card, or even placed on little stickers for Saint Patricks Treats!
You can use this basic design lots of ways- just download the jpeg file and print at it’s 8 1/2 x11″ size, or you can add it into other programs like word, iPhoto, or a design program, to make a card or sticker with it. This is a simple and beautiful enough print it will look great long after you take down all Saint Patricks Day decor!

Thought you wouldn’t welcome my bad news right enough.
No worries, it just takes a while to sift through comments sometimes. Totally bummed, its one of my favorites.
“May the Road Rise with You” is a mistranslation of the Irish benediction “Go n-éirigh an bóthar leat” (the correct translation of which is “May your journey succeed”) and as such is baloney; probably by someone who did not understand Gaelic phraseology.
This drives Gaelic speakers potty. I am fluent in Gelic and it drives ME potty too. For a full explanation see http://tinyurl.com/p7n3axl (Tinyurl link to a posting on the Irish Gaelic Translations website)
Sorry, folks.
Bummer- but I appreciate the info!
