This was the card I gave to my husband (way back at the beginning of the month!)... it has been a little bit crazy in our neck of the woods!
Enjoy!

Adoption mini-book (pic heavy)
Some good friends of ours are adopting a little boy this month who is 2 years old. We are just so very excited for them and can't wait to meet him! What a blessing! There was a surprise "baby" shower for the mom and she is one of my friends who loves all things scrapbooking. I really wanted to make something special. Since he is older I wanted him to know he was loved and a part of their family long before he ever joined their family. So I made *him* a little picture book. My friend can place a current picture of each member in the frames, then a pic of him, and pic of the 4 of them at the front. I used a little icon to represent something that was special to each of them (mom is crafty, dad is in seminary, big sister likes horses, and he's a little boy so hopefully he likes planes :) ... and of course on the front is one of my favorite sentiments for little ones who are adopted!).
Enjoy!

Twin birthday card
My husband is a twin and their birthday is this weekend. I always think his twin gets the "short end of the stick" with me because my birthday is two days before theirs so we are celebrating mine and then my husband's and then I think, "Oh yea, I should have sent my brother-in-law a card!" (oops!) He gets one every few years! This was an *on* year for me.
The photography however, not so much, it was TERRIBLE! I've edited it to death, and it's still bad. So, for those who care- Kraft card stock; EP T&T Charming paper; Simple Circles in Simply Chartreuse, Dk Chocolate, Kraft, Fine Linen, Versamark; Road Trip & Birthday Bash Sentiments.
Enjoy!
