seeing as my husbands birthday is on valentines day..i now have to make him a birthday card too.... which also means if we want to go out for a birthday meal together or with family, seems everywhere is crowded or very expensive.... although everyone says it must be lovely having your birthday on the 14th..my husband never really gets a day to celebrate just for him !!

looks like another wintery weekend..keep warm and dry..perfect time to stay in and be creative!!

lets party...
