About Me
New to Digital Scrapbooking, just started in 2019, want to make a record of family stories before my mother passes away. My dad died in 2016. I currently live in Canada but was born and raised in New Zealand, and emigrated to Canada upon marrying my Canadian spouse. Home Country - lets see - New Zealand or Canada? Which to choose? Most of my photos will be from NZ, but any pics of my son will be from Canada. MY IP Address will say that I am in Canada which is fine. My mother and sister are still back in NZ so I will make my home country as NZ for now. For Facebook, I dont check it every day - I am not addicted to FB, and I use a different name for privacy. My image is myself as a child - aged about 2 or 3 years old

So for the last 10 days of this project, I will be celebrating my new home of Canada.

Gorgeous! love how you used the papers and the silhouette
Shannon, You will be surprised to learn that I learned that song (Land of the Silver Birch) as a girl guide way back when i was a teenager. we are talking almost 40 years ago now LOL. But I had no idea that it was specifically a Canadian song until I immigrated here!!
Happy Canada Day! I'm so happy to see you used "Land of the Silver Birch" in your layout. Very cool. The painting depicts the rapids very close to where I grew up.
