Happy Father's day, and Happy Birthday to my lovely Hubby xxx
The card I made for Darren's dad is in the post below, Mac bought a funny one for her Daddy.
My dad died 10 years ago, aged 75 .
Five years earlier he had told me he was "ready to go"
but said he wanted to wait until he saw me with a baby,
then when Mackenzie was born he died the week after,
I'm sure he did wait and I only have 1 photo of them together.
I have made this card for Darren's birthday, not sure if it's really suitable for a 47 year old LOL
But he loves plane & I thought this would remind him of his childhood.
I have used:
Magnolia ~ Edwin with Airplane
Raspberry Road ~ Glory Days
DooHickey ~ Star & Flag
Whimsey ~ Sentiment Stamps
Memory Box ~ Willow Dragonfly
Remember to pop back tomorrow, when I will start sharing my LOTV sneak peeks.

Thanks for looking

Hi Fleur
Your card is wonderful, I think men are never to old when it comes to anything with a transportation
theme, they are all young boys at heart.
