Canada Day Card Duo

 


Every year I send out Canada Day cards to family & a few friends, but this year these are the only two cards I managed to make! 😩  I may have to make a couple in the coming weeks to have on hand for next year. Sheesh.  

At any rate, I was flipping through the Moose Crossing patterned paper pad by Catherine Pooler and saw the buffalo plaid maple leaf print. Bingo! I grabbed the coordinating stamp set and decided to use the August 2023 Sheetload sketch for these cards.


After punched out the stamped beaver with a label punch, I aded some dots with a marker to 'ground' him and lightly inked the edges. Inside, I added a few more stamps from the set and a Celebrate stamp. 


Now to decide which family members will get a card, ha ha. I'm thinking that we will be getting together with my brother and our eldest daughter & family, so the ones that won't be joining us will get Happy Mail to celebrate Canada's 157th Birthday!
