#91 Learning Curve - Happy Canada Day!

Hi everyone! Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canadians! Today my family and I are headed to the parade and Canada Day festivities that are held every year in our town. Good times!

O Canada!

Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!

From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

Here is a layout that I created to enter in a couple of patriotic challenges:

The Cricut cartridges/cuts I used are:
Learning Curve - Title cut at 2".
Sesame Street Seasons - maple leaf cut at 9".

I added some Divine Twine and stickles to the maple leaf and some border rubons along the top and bottom.

Challenges:
Cricut Circle Weekly challenge - patriotic pride
Canada Day challenge on the Cricut Circle Messageboard.

Hope you like it!

For this challenge over at fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com each DT member added one element for the participants to incorporate into a project. The grand prize is to be awarded to the best project using the most chosen elements. There were 11 in total and in my layout I used all but the glass etching.
The elements I used were:

Hope you like my project, I would have added more projects for the individual prizes but I ran out of time!!!
