How Wet Is It?

Kelly, Barb, and I usually share our Ready, Set, Go creations on the third Wednesday of each month so today is the day.

Not sure what Ready, Set, Go is? Well, it's a lot of fun! And a bit of creativity. And an extreme challenge theme.

Ready, Set, Go is an idea that Kelly came up with over two years ago and she invited Barb and I to join her on the adventure. We take turns choosing the theme, but the idea is for it to be a bit more challenging than just the average theme.

It was Barb's turn to choose the theme this month. Here are her instructions...

You have been tasked to make a card or project using green someplace..   You also need to do some research and showcase something Irish, other than a shamrock.  It can be another symbol, a food, area of Ireland,  a celebration or tradition,  etc.  Anything to do with Ireland and the Irish people.

I enjoyed researching Ireland... and learned quite a few things of interest. The idea that I chose for my card is the fact that Ireland is has the wettest climate of any  European country. How wet is it? (This sounds like a TV show, doesn't it?) It's soooo wet that in 2007 Ireland saw 40 straight days of rain. Now that's pretty wet, if you ask me. Wet enough that a person would need to carry an umbrella, for sure.

Be sure to check out Barb's blog and Kelly's blog to see what they did with this Ready Set Go theme!
