I've never been to Canada,but my daughter and grandchildren visited there last year. So when I saw the 'Oh Canada' challenge at Use Your Stuff , I thought it'd be a good opportunity to scrap one of their holiday snaps.
I used a combination of papers from My Mind's Eye and plain cardstock. I designed and cut the title and the maple leaf on the Silhouette Cameo (actually the partial cutting on the leaf was a bit of an accident but I like it). I used lots of grey, to enter the challenge at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge and buttons for Lasting Memories.

Fabulous page Marina. I like the partial cutting too - very effective.
Brilliant ideas for this page Marina.

That's a perfect backdrop for your super photo! Love the leaf!
I thought you cut that leaf on purpose:) It looks great! And the photo is priceless!
Fabulous! Love that big maple leaf with two different patterned papers. Cool! Where was this photo taken...The CN Tower in Toronto? Thanks for playing along at Use Your Stuff - Gail

Great job of showcasing our Maple Leaf on your layout....Fabulous photo! Great use of the buttons for the Lasting Memories challenge...thanks for playing along!!!
Great idea using a cut maple leaf as a background for the photo taken in Canada. I take lots of photos on my travels and I really should be making something with my favorite ones...
Thanks Gail -it's my daughter's photo so not sure exactly where taken - but she did have other photos of the CN tower, so you're probably right.
Super cute layout :) Thank you for joining us over at Lasting Memories and over at Use Your Stuff blog
