Meeting the Prime Minister

So, this happened at my zumba class. Following the great workout, the Prime Minister of Canada visited the community centre to meet with other local Members of Parliament. This was something I never expected to happen living in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It was a very neat random meeting, no matter which political party you support. Of course, I needed to scrap it. Here is page one, showing the official Government of Canada vehicles.

Happy Canada Day 2015!!

Hello!! It's no secret that our family LOVES Canada Day! It's the first day of summer holiday for hubs and the kids! I love making red and white scrapbooking layouts, cards and decor.
I was asked by Paper-Garden.ca to enter a Canada Day Card Making Contest (eek). She even sent me a sample pack of red and white paper to play with. Here is my entry.

Here are the other entries. I invite you to play along!

Canada Day scrapbooking products 2015 (or lack thereof)

I have been searching locally and online for Canada themed paper and embellishments. It doesn't seem like there is much out there this year. My local stores have nothing. :( I did find some papers online though.

This paper is by Reminisce.

This grey scale paper is available from Scrapbook Customs

This is from Paper House Productions.

Please leave me a comment if you have found any products near you.

Canada Day Inspiration

Woohoo! Canada Day is almost here! Here are some previously posted projects of mine.

This year, I am entering a card contest. Please check back to see my entry as well as all the other cards in the contest!

Superdad Father's Day card

I knew I wanted to make the hubs some type of Superdad card. (He really is a Superdad and husband.) The Summer Celebrations Cricut cartridge has this Superdad image. I cut it out, as well as a free Superman logo I uploaded. Stuck them together, and voila!

Pop-Up Thank Ewe Card

Hello! I have been busy making end of the school year cards. Currently,I am obsessed with pop-up cards. They are so fun to make. If you haven't played with the new Cricut cartridge called Simple Pop-Up Cards, I recommend it. (This cartridge is included in the subscription.) All the cards are simple two layer pop-ups using the score tool and a Cricut compatible pen.

So fun!

Mother's Day Cards 2015

Good Day! I am having fun this week playing with the Design Space program. There are many great Make It Now Mother's Day projects.

The card below is very similar to the example they provide on Design Space. I thought it would be a great "mailable" card for my grandmother who loves daisies.
