Canada Day Blog Hop

Welcome to the Canada Day Blog hop :)

We are a small group of Card Making Canadians from all over Canada that wanted to have a fun blog hop to Celebrate Canada Day! Today we're sharing with you cards that have been created with either Canadian products, a Canadian theme or Canada's colours! We hope they inspire you!

For my card I used this cute image from Redonkulous Desings, to check out another card I made with her go to my Canadian Girl at Heart post.
This time I coloured her up in greens ;)
I coloured her with my Copics but coloured the detailed maple leaf with my Stampin' Up marker.
I put some red jewels on the black cardstock, but the photo didn't pick it up.















Here is a closer look at the coloured image.
This image is called Welcome Home Soldier. Sheryl (the illustrator) is a Canadian girl, and rocks these images.
They are digital images. I have always been intimidated with anything digital, but not any longer ;)
I just think this sassy Canadian girl is adorable.




















I made an easel card for this one.
There is just something fun about an easel card, don't you think :)
The sentiment was done on my computer.




















There are some goodies up for grabs, so tell us what you think of our creations and you may come out a winner :)
Now you get the pleasure of visiting all the other talented Canadian ladies that are participating in this hop :)
