Proud to be Canadian...


OUR COLORS MAY BE RED AND WHITE, BUT OUR HEARTS RUN PURE GOLD!!
.
I love being a Canadian! With the end of the Olympic games and the amazing goal by Sidney Crosby yesterday in the hockey match, I was extremely proud of my country. We have so much talent here in Canada. It's great to see all areas come together to celebrate, the athletes, artists, builders, and the companies that donated their time and supplies, it goes to show you how we can come together.

Here is one of the cards I created on Saturday at the Diva Crop. The stamp is called Rabbits of the Round Table and is by House Mouse. As soon as I saw this stamp I fell in love with it. I coloured the image with copic markers.



Here is the close up of the bunnies.

Wow, this last month has been very busy for me.

My friend Veronica hosted the Diva Crop yesterday. I had so much fun. I also got to visit with some friends that I haven't seen in awhile. Julie from Sassy Scrapping was there with her store. If you guys haven't checked out her site, it's great!!

I sat with Marg, Barb, Sue, Elaine, and Lisa. We had an absolutely fun time.

Now, here's a card to get you ready for St.Patrick's Day.

Enjoy

Hello Ladies,

Sorry I have been away from my blog lately. I have been studying for my paralegal licensing exam that I wrote yesterday. WHEW!! It’s over, now I have to wait for the results to see how I did.

Ok. So Close to my Heart is giving away a free Felicity Collection Kit every day for the month of January to celebrate National Papercrafting Month. Click HERE to access the blog. All you have to do is comment each day and you are entered. It’s that easy. Just don’t forget.

Also, we are hosting a Crop for Heart on Saturday, March 27, 2010 from 10am to 9pm. This will be hosted at St. Paul Catholic Elementary School in Newmarket. It's going to be so much fun. For more information you can either leave a message here and I will send you the flyer, or you can email Carol at ctaggio72@rogers.com

Cheers!

a new year, a new card

Hello Ladies,

Hello 2010!! Hope everyone had a great new year's.

I had a very interesting day today. While I was on lunch I was reading the paper. I came across the obituaries. On a whim I went through them. Wouldn't you know it...I found my dad's name!! Not just his first and last but the same middle name....it was disturbing....so of course I sent it to my mom. She certainly enjoyed it.

Well here's my card for today. Hope you like it!!!



and here is the close up of the little girl:

The Holidays

.
Good Morning,

I haven't been on lately much as we are getting ready for Christmas at our house. We had two parties this past weekend and I had tons of fun. On friday night we had the guys and their partners over for drinks and finger foods. There was so much food. I had a great time. Saturday we had our old neighbours and my aunt and uncle over for dinner. We had Chicken piccata, scalloped potatoes, steamed carrots and for dessert blueberry white chocolate bread pudding with ameretto cream sauce. OMG!! it was so good. We gave everyone a cracker on their place settings. I got a golf counter, it was so funny. I didn't even know what it was, I had to read the instructions.

Well I am looking forward to seeing my family in the coming days!! I plan to post some cards tomorrow that I have done over the last week.

Well I hope you all have a great holidays!!!
