‘Marbh le Tae’ A4 Print – Connect The Dots Design
Beautiful A4 Print created by Connect The Dot Designs. 🎨
“Hi, I'm Úna Méabh. While looking for an Irish language wedding card a few months later all I could find were traditional olde celtic style cards that my granny would have loved. She was a lovely woman but I wanted something fun and colourful. I ended up designing a card myself; a theme that has followed me through this business journey. Can’t find it? make it yourself.
Since those very early days the business has grown from a single card to a full range of greeting cards, multiple art print collections and some gorgeous stationery items.
This is my actual real-life big girl job and I do sometimes have to stop and smile at where I am and what I have acheived. I'm proud of it and I'm excited for what's yet to come.”

An original, hand drawn design depicting well known Irish cultural symbols and objects arranged in the shape of the beautiful emerald isle. Items include a traditional Celtic cross, an Irish dancing dress, a pot of tea, the Claddagh, a camán (hurling stick) and a pint of Guinness.
The map has a backdrop of rich Irish proverbs including:
Mol an óige agus tiocfaidh sí - Praise the youth and they will prosper
Tír gan teanga tír gan anam - A country without a language is a country without a soul.
Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin - There's no place like home.
'Sé leigheas na póite ól arís - the cure for a hangover is to drink again.
Made from: Artwork is hand drawn before being digitised and then printed in-house on beautiful archival matte paper with premium ink to ensure a gorgeous smooth velvety finish. Prints are placed in clear cellophane sleeves with rigid backing boards and are packaged with love in rigid mailers to ensure they reach you in tip top condition.

‘Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin’ Ireland Print on Wood – Once Upon a Dandelion
One of the gorgeous (and hardest!) things I love about Irish is the lack of direct translations to/from English.
'There's no place like home' translation means more literally 'There's no fireside like your own fireside'.
