What Day Is St. Patrick’s Day This Year?
St. Patrick’s Day is always on March 17th, and in 2026 it falls on a Tuesday.
Can I make St. Patrick’s Day pages without neon green?
Yes, you can absolutely do St. Patrick’s Day pages without blasting neon green everywhere. There are a bunch of pages featured in this post that show just how many different options there are. Some of these are not even necessarily St. Patrick’s Day themed specifically, but they fit the vibe.
The easiest trick is to treat green like an accent color instead of drenching the whole page in it. Use creams, kraft, white, or soft gray as your base, then add green in smaller layers like mats, tags, journaling blocks, or a little cluster of embellishments.
If you want to keep it subtle with a playful wink to the holiday, a tiny nod like green beer in a sticker, a label, or a mini photo detail is plenty. It lets people recognize the theme, but still looks styled.
Quick ideas that keep it “grown-up cute”:
- Add texture: vellum, stitched edges, book pages, or layered ephemera
- Pair green with cream + gold for a softer look
- Use darker greens (forest, olive, emerald) instead of bright shamrock
How do I add shamrocks and gold without it looking cheesy?
The secret to shamrocks and gold that do not look cheesy is: pick one main icon, then build around it like it is the star of the show.
A single pot of gold detail can feel really classy when it is part of a balanced cluster, especially if you keep the rest of the page simple. Also, if you use a cut file, make it clean and bold, then back it with patterned paper or vellum instead of piling on a million tiny stickers.
For titles, lucky box letters are perfect when you want that punchy headline look without extra clutter.

FAQs: St. Patrick’s Day Scrapbook Ideas
A scrapbook is usually built around photos, memories, and keepsakes, often with a more organized, album-style look, like many of the scrapbook layouts in this post. Junk journals are all about freedom and fun! They don’t have to include photos and often use found papers, ticket stubs, and layered textures. If you want to see the difference in action, just scroll through the page ideas right here for inspiration! We also have a post giving examples of the difference. Check it out here!
Cream, kraft, white, black, and gold are the easiest pairings. If you want something softer, add sage or light gray. If you want bold, add a tiny bit of orange or rainbow accents in small doses.
This is where the junk journaling aspect can come into play. Save all the things that are St Patricks Day or Irish related and use those. We saw someone use an Irish beer sign as the focal point and it was gorgeous! Other options are to make a seasonal snapshot page with journaling about your week, your favorite cozy foods, what you are watching, and little everyday moments. You can also do a tradition page, a gratitude page, or a “currently” list with themed colors.
Limit your page to one focal cluster and one title area, then let whitespace do some work. Repeat the same two or three colors across the page, and keep embellishments grouped instead of scattered.

Scrapbook Supplies Corner
Regardless if you lean more toward bullet journal, scrapbook layouts or junk journal pages, we know that seeing other people’s (or creature’s) junk journal layouts or scrapbook journals often makes people want to get the same supplies as those being used.
This is such a good holiday to use what you already have and still end up with perfect designs. Start with a neutral base, add patterned paper in greens, toss in a little gold foil if you have it, and then build one strong focal cluster. A single scrapbook layout can feel totally “done” with a title, two or three layers, and one themed embellishment set. Try mixing tags, labels, and journaling cards, and if you have icons like pots of gold, keep them grouped so the page looks styled instead of scattered.
