Canada Blog Hop + candy

Welcome to the CANADA DAY Blog Hop hosted by Tara & Jacqueline!  If you are here from Michelle , then you are in the right spot. If you would like to start at the beginning please click here In honour of Canada Day ,we are all making a project with a Canadian theme!

Our family loves celebrating Canada Day! We always take pictures in our Canada shirts. For this layout, I used scraps of Canada printed paper by Around the Block. I used my Gypsy to cut the large maple leaf and the large stamp shape from the Gypsy Wanderings cartridge. The banner cuts are all from Birthday Bash. I just love the font and banner features on that cartridge. The Canada tag is from Destinations, I added some Gloss to the leaf to jazz it up a bit.

Grad card 2011

This card is made with only one cartridge - Birthday Bash. All I added was a bit of floss and some pop dots. You could make this type of banner card in any school colour combinations. Quick and easy!

Crazy about Cricut Birthday challenge

Omgoodness I could not pass up this challenge at Crazy about Cricut! The prize is a Cricut Everyday cartridge (exclusive to circle members). This challenge is perfect for this week as a very good friend is celebrating a birthday.



My friend loves the beach and the color orange. I knew I needed to incorporate both of these things in her card. Most of these cuts are from the Life's a Beach cartridge. The sentiment is from the Birthday Bash cartridge. The sand is inked and the palm tree is embossed using my bone folder.



I used my Gypsy to weld the palm tree to a rectangle and that way the card could fold over 2 ways.

I need to add a shout out to Carri. I made this card and then could not remember the blog with the challenge. She kindly gave me the address.
