July 1st is Canada’s birthday and we want to celebrate it with a new kit, True Patriot Love!
This is a gigantic collaboration that was contributed to by the four Canadian designers at Scraps N Pieces: Marie H Designs, Mommy Made This, Queen Wild Scraps, and True North Scraps. This is probably one of the best collabs I have ever seen in my life!
Wait? Are you saying you aren’t Canadian, so why should you be interested? Be interested my friend. You still need this kit! We used colours appropriate for other nationalities to show their pride as well. We have even included some stars to match the American flag. And what about that vacation you took to Canada last summer? Or your trip to Epcot’s Canada Pavilion in Walt Disney World? We have you covered!
When you see what our Creative Teams have done with this kit, most of whom are not Canadian, you will agree that no matter what your nationality is … you need this kit!
What’s included that is so amazing, you are wondering? WELL!
Whew! Told ya it was big!
Despite it’s enormous size, we have kept it very affordable. Can you believe you get all that for only $9.99?!! On top of that already amazingly low price, we have discounted it further for its first week in stores, by an additional 30%! Where are you going to find a bargain like this again?
I would like to show off the layouts I made using True Patriot Love. The first is a two-page spread for the Canadian Rockies album I’m making for my parents. This will be the first two pages for the album and even though I’m almost finished, I needed to go back to the beginning. I either needed to make a page 4 pictureless layout, so there wouldn’t be an empty spot due to the next two pages needing to be side by side, or combine the first three layouts into two. I decided to combine. I really like how it turned out and I was able to incorporate the fun Vancouver Then and Now article from their Rocky Mountaineer Mile Post Newspaper.
Here’s a close-up of both the left and right sides.

These next two layouts are from a trip James and I took for a little getaway as he had to make a trip to Rochester for work and I arrived at the end of his work days. The first one will be the cover page of the album. I have so many vacation albums that just have a few pages done, who knows when I’ll finish this one.

Quote: A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone. It doesn’t struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different. And there’s room in the garden for every flower. – Marianne Williamson Journaling on this one reads: “The tulips in Queen Victoria Park near the Maid of the Mist ticket booth were gorgeous. After stopping to take a few photos, we walked leisurely through Clifton Hill, trying to decide where to stop for lunch. We saw the sign for Crepe de licious and decided to check out their menu as we became fans of savoury crepes when vacationing in Tahiti. We ended up staying and James had a Cordon Bleu crepe while I had a Chicken Caesar crepe. We then walked back to our hotel to hop in our rental car to drive north to Niagara-on-the-Lake.”
