Winner and Canada Day Invitation

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and entered the giveaway. I enjoyed reading about your fun summer plans! So the winner of the blog candy is.....Nancy! Congratulations Nancy! Just email me your address and I'll mail the goodies to you!

This is a party invite I made for the monthly challenge over at Hero Arts. Canada Day is July 1st and I made the invitation based on the Canadian Flag.



















I wanted the flag to feel like it was blowing in the wind and I think the Woodgrain stamp on the red parts (which is clear embossed) and the Flourish stamp on the white section adds to that feeling. I added an eyelet, some braided string and a maple leaf charm I made from Shrinky Dink.

Thanks for stopping by!
