Splitcoaststampers is having VSN this weekend. VSN stands for Virtual Stamp Night and we all get together through cyberspace making cards for certain challenges that are posted every hour. I got 2 done last night and here is one of them.
The inspiration for the card had to come from this Olympic sweater, and since I have the Glorious and Free stamp set, I pulled it out! I wanted my card to have a feel of someone sending a postcard across the miles to someone competing. Everything on this card is from Stampin' Up!, but the ribbon is retired. This would make a great card for someone that is becoming a Canadian citizen, or have a birthday on Canada Day (July 1). Or just to someone who you know is proud to be Canadian ... like me! Have fun and happy stamping!!
Hi Julie -- Love the card! The red and brown are so pretty. You should be proud to be a Canadian -- what great Olympics!

YES, I'm a proud Canadian & this card fits all the entries you've suggested; so nice of you to share this & a great Canadian card; I'm sure you could've sold these at the Olympics!

Super Cute! I love the rustic look, the crinkles and the moose! Yes, I wish I had some of that RRH (right?) retired ribbon! Gabby :)
