Very nice. Hopefully when you put stamps in the beautiful Ireland text doesn't steal the spotlight and detract focus from the stamps. I would like to see it with the stamps if it is possible...

Let me see what I got in my collection. All the descriptions are ripped right out of The Collector from anpost.ie. If I release the pages publicly, I'll probably need to get permission from them.

Well, it looks like I have 2011 stamps, and not 2012 stamps. Looks like I need to work on a new set of pages tonight. Ah well...

So, against my better judgement, I posted a message on a certain stamp forum "down under" and actually got some good advice from someone else who collects Ireland.
Here goes:
1. The Christmas and Hermit crab stamps - no reason to keep them as pairs. Both SG and Hibernian list them as individual stamps. I cut each of them apart and am going to offer my extras for sale on this forum. Go check out the buy/sell/trade area if you're interested.
2. The dolphin/squirrel stamps - These are part of a coil and should be kept together.
3. The Art booklet - try to keep the booklet as intact as possible. So, I opened up the booklet and stuck it in a mount. Whole thing: stamps, selvage AND cardboard booklet.
