Happy Monday. I hope everyone weathered the storms on the East Coast and are making it back to normal. Here in Virginia we were fortunate not to have too much wind and rain and school resumed for the kids today. So on to the card for today. I created a masculine birthday card on the fly when my husband came home from his morning walk yesterday and said his cousin's birthday was that very day. I didn't have one that would fit this recipient so I went to crafting and created one in time for his afternoon walk.  The recipient seemed to enjoy it and I was happy I could create a card so quickly. Check out the project below and let me know what you think. .
