Happy Birthday Pat!

Today is my hubby's 44th birthday.  He is constantly giving me a hard time as I'm always saying that he is older than he actually is.  I just remind him that no matter what his age he is always older than me!  Collin and I made a cake for him last night.  It's complete with a whole jar of sprinkles and some very gross tasting green icing that says, "Happy Birthday Daddy!" I think my card making skills are much better than my cake decorating skills!  We'll go out for a nice dinner this weekend to celebrate (tonight is busy with religious ed and baseball practice!)  He is such a wonderful husband and my very best friend.  I love him so much.
I made this card for him (along with others that I shared a couple months ago).  This one follows along with the current sketch challenge at Hero Arts using some new Basic Grey papers that match a few of the Hero stamp sets.
Ingredients:  Basic Grey DSP: PTI Twine; Stamps:  Hero Arts; Ink:  Stampin' Up Chocolate Chip

Happy birthday to your husband and I'd have to agree with your advice (in my own personal life!). Your card is wonderfully manly.
