Canadian news these days is kind of boring. 

A good thing. 
A really, really good thing.

Peace, Order and Good Government is our motto

Yes.
Thank-you, Thank-you, Thank-you.

  6. Trees of Canada

    I love hiking and canoeing. 



    Almost every time I go to Algonquin Park, I see this tree!

    I'm serious. Lucky me! 



    It's a Canadian thing.

    Canadian Coat of Arms

    my version.
    I love Coats of Arms... so regal... with tigers and bejeweled crowns...
    and a touch of Canadiana thrown in.

    Hockey, Canoeing and Curling...

    Yup, Yup, Yup!




    Hey!... that would be a good name for a BAND!!

  14. I have loads of new cards and t-shirts!
    In addition to my extensive Canadiana Christmas line of cards!




    Wow. Justin and Donald. A bit different n'est pas?

    Canada has 2 famous Justins.
    I have 2 NEW Justin cards. This one is celebrating our Prime Minister.
    The second card celebrates both Justins... I'm revealing at The #TOGiftFair

    A Butter Tart Christmas card... a Canadian tradition!
    I was honoured to be a judge this spring at Midland Ontario's Butter Tart Festival.
    Butter Tart heaven for sure!

    and... a new t-shirt!
    This little animal is super cute if... you do NOT own a house.
    There is an industry in Canada making loads of money promising to move them out of your house. Big scam.
    Racoons are professional squatters. Do not undersetimate them!
    A Canadian theme for sure!
    I have loads more NEW designs.
    Come by Ampersand's booth and say hi!

  16. I'm a judge!!

    This Saturday, June 11, 2016 
    I'm honoured to be one of the lucky judges at Ontario's Best Butter Tart Festival 
    in Midland Ontario.

    Yay! How fantastic. I love butter tarts. Easy peasy. 
    You have butter tarts with raisins, butter tarts without raisins, butter tarts with pecans,
    runny, not runny, flaky crust... piece of cake!
    Not.

    Last years winners had pumpkin butter tarts, apple butter tarts, 
    fruit and nut butter tarts, Nutella stuffed raspberry, Skor butter tarts, 
    peanut butter banana, bacon butter tarts...

    Oh boy.

    There are butter tarts competing from all parts of Canada. Serious stuff.


    Come to Midland to check out this incredible festival.

    Loads of tarts for everyone!

    I hope to see you there!
    : )

  19. I've just finished getting my corner set up… ta da!
    The Toronto Gift Show runs from Sun Jan 31 to Thurs Feb 4th!

    cangift.org

    My line will be in Ampersand Inc's booth #11461 in The Congress Centre.

    I'm super happy to be represented by Ampersand and surrounded by super fun book lines.
    Check them out at ampersandinc.ca

    Come and see my new funky things!


    My new Toronto Birthday Card! (One of many new birthday designs!)

    I was asked to convert my popular print and card into a t-shirt by
    Canada's most famous puppeteer  Ronnie Burkett!
    So... here it is!
    Now you can send a nice Canadian Thank You!
    The Toronto Gift Show is a national wholesale-only trade show… 
    accessible only to retailers, I'm afraid.

    Please drop by and see my line and meet my friendly reps… 

    I have lots more stuff I haven't shown.
