Book Page Wreath

So as I mentioned in my last post, I recently had some free time on my hands which allowed me to get some time in for crafting!! A tradition that we have at our family reunion that I just attended is to have an auction and country store to help raise a little bit of money to put toward the next reunion. So I decided to make 2 book page wreaths as my contribution. They turned out really cute so I just had to make a third one to keep for myself. For step by step instructions on how to make these lovlies, go here! :)

Here is the wreath that I kept with a personalized monogram! 

And here is one of the wreaths that I took to the reunion 

(I forgot to take a picture of the other one, sorry!)

Happy Canada Day....4 days later!

Happy 144th Birthday Canada! 

Even though it's late,

 I have a good excuse. 

I was at my family reunion, 

the "Shields Stampede 2011" and it was a blast! 

We have them every 3 years (it's my grandpa's side of the family)

 and I haven't missed one since I was a baby.

 It is so fun to see all of my family 

that I don't see often enough and 

play games, 

have fun and 

catch up. 

Well before the reunion started last week 

I had some time off school so it gave me a chance to do some crafting. 

Here is what I created in honour of Canada's birthday. :)
