Happy Canada Day!!!

I signed up for a Canada Day Cards blog hop....lots of prizes too at Paper Garden  head over there and look at all the Canada Day cards some bloggers have made and vote for your favourite one too. My idea was to use my Canada Day stamp from High Hopes, I think it's retired now but it wasn't in the drawer with my cling mount stamps or on the stand that holds some too I probably took it to the lake last year and it's still in a box that has not been unpacked. So  went for a second idea and just used red.

I have made an A2 center step card and a poppy stamp I punched 6 maple leaves to add to the sides of the card.
Here is the Canada Day image I used in 2011

I am adding this to Canada Day Cards at Paper Garden

Thanks for visiting on this July 1st holiday and now I would like you to leave a comment (please) and then go to this LINK and VOTE for the card you like (hope it's mine) There are prizes.WooHoo.

Happy Canada Day!!!

The Challenge at Shopping Our Stash  is Red, White and Blue or use the colours in the flag of your country. As the title says I’m from Canada and the colours in our flag are Red and  White, what is your country and colours? I used a Bugaboo Digi stamp from the Calendar section and picked July with JJ.

Isn’t JJ festive in her long Canada Day gown and waving her flag.

I found maple leaf brad in my stash so thought it would great on the red ribbon. The embossed background was in my scrap box.
