I just got through *organizing* most of my papers ((once again)) and found some fun brown patterned papers I knew would be perfect for this challenge. I have to say I am super pleased with this card. I just love how masculine and strong it is, but still so warm and loving. It’s for my dad’s 65th Birthday we are celebrating today with grilled shrimp and steaks!! YUM-O! The shrimp is locally fresh and I even helped catch it! So fun!
Hope you are having a fabulous weekend…and make sure to check out the fun over at Embellish!
