I enjoy traveling and exploring new places with my sweet hubby. And so this card is perfect for him (although we do fly newer aircraft-LOL!). I made it last February, but I’ve been saving it for his 70th (!) birthday coming up tomorrow – A major milestone!!! He doesn’t look 70, at least not so to me! […]

Can’t get enough birthday balloons!

This weekend has been one of my “definitely on” times, […]
