Eden, this is a fantastic layout! The placement of emblishments add so much to the overall theme of red, white and blue. Sir Edmund Barton was so on target when he said, "Creating a nation requires the will of the people." Thank you for sharing this special page with us!

This is terrific! Very, very classy. It's a wonderful treatment for the theme.

Cool LO Eden, I love what you have done with the flag here.

What a great page! I love the cigarette card feel of the main pic.

Eden this is sooooo good! I knew Edmund Barton was our first PM but did not know he made that great comment. Love the elements in this - the way you have used the flag, the wonderful era-authentic (is that a word?) caricature and the signature and stamps. Perfect :-)

Wonderful layout Eden! Great placement/design!!

I love this! Your layers, paper choices, the colors, the composition; everything looks just perfect. Great page!

What a fabulous layout! I love the torn edge and the ric rak. Great job!

Fantastic! What a great theme. Love the way you divided the page and tucked in the wonderful stamps. Super creative page!

Very interesting layout. TFS. Love the quote.

I love this Eden, it shows you don't have to be American to use patriotic collections. The Netherlands colors are also Red White and Blue..so this gave me great ideas. Thank you for sharing your inspiration.

Neat page! Great word art on the title & I like the way you split the background. The postcard is cute, too, I love those Victorians with their embonpoint!
