Day 49. Theme Day: Canada!

It was my turn to pick a theme. I chose CANADA. Some thing to be proud of, especially
today with the final day of the Olympics in Vancouver. The Canadian Mens Hockey Team
beat the USA 3 to 2 in overtime. ( Iginla making the pass to Crosby to score the winning goal.)

This was a fun little exercise. I threw in the size format and a purpose for the image. To have it up on our Facebook Group page.

I think I've come a long way in almost two months, learning more about what I can do with
my graphic software tools. I like taking on a challenge, we gain our own rewards.

Thanks for looking! Go Canada Go!

GarSeeYa!
