I Love Canada Puzzle

After a while I conceded that, once again, I would not have the Christmas House puzzle in my Christmas jigsaw puzzle collection which was somewhat a downer for me. Then, BAM!!!! There it was! At my door!!! I was shocked and surprised - a Puzzle Fairy fulfilled my Christmas wish AND sent along another one of my most favourite White Mountain jigsaw puzzles that I just NEVER thought I could possibly own - the I Love Canada jigsaw puzzle. I am just super thrilled I now have both these puzzles and blessed to have a Puzzle Fairy who knows the power of kindness and generosity! My deepest gratitude goes to this most wonderful jigsaw puzzle Fairy in the world!

I am fully aware of most of the details in the jigsaw puzzle image and I think the artist, Charlie Girard did terrific artwork in capturing the essence of Canada. According the LinkedIn he has worked at White Mountain jigsaw puzzles for over 8 years and has many wonderful puzzle images to assemble. In fact, you can locate 59 of them right on the White Mountain website!

So take a little closer look at the following images to see the wonderful details of Canada in which we live....how many are you familiar with???? 

The finish is on this White Mountain jigsaw puzzle is glossy however the pieces are good and solid and fit very well together. This is my second White Mountain jigsaw puzzle I have assembled so I can see why they are so popular. I do like the shape of the pieces being big and solid however the overall size of 24" x 30" is bigger than the standard foam boards we use so that leads to a bigger board.
