Happy 88th!

Last week, my father-in-law celebrated his 88th birthday. My sister-in-law and I worked together to create a scrapbook for him of his pictures from a trip to Washington, D.C. Because he is a WWII vet, he was able to take part in the Honor Flight Program. We really enjoyed preserving those memories for him.

His birthday card was a little bit of a challenge for me because I was designing it around a couple of embellishments. My 12-year-old daughter’s craft medium of choice is polymer clay. She loves to sculpt things—the tinier, the better. She recently made some adorable mini-treats for me to use on cards and I just had to include her little cupcakes on her granddaddy’s card. I like the way it turned out.
