You card is great! I love the scalloped circle and inking in the center. Your layout is super fun. I can't imagine cutting out all those leaves. I would have done that too back in the day. : )

happy canada day!!! I was told to go to your blog and I'm glad I did!!! love your stuff =) YAY!
Wonderful cards. Belated Happy Canada Day! Especially like the stamping. Rememebering what happened Mar this yr 2011 as I was returning from Ontario back into US the security guard after looking at the rubber stamps I had bought at a Michaels in Ontario said why did I not have a beaver stamp and I told him I could not find a beaver stamp so I had a moose along with the other stamps. He told me his wife did stamping. I had the wonderful pleasure of visiting the following areas of Canada (Niagara Falls where I enjoyed the Falls and the boat ride on the Maid of the Mist), Vancouver (where we took a city tour and bus driver did not count the passengers at one stop and left us behind until the other passengers told him they noticed we were not on the bus) & Ontario (in Mar this yr 2011 I enjoyed the Toronto Zoo, Casa Loma & downtown Ontario where for the weekend I was there Ontario had no snow, no rain & sun was out).
