A little birdie told me to dream

This is for the Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge #42! It was fun to make amidst the chaos of my house the last week. Enjoy!

Father's Day on the high seas!

This is my card for the Create with Connie and Mary color challenge this week. I had a great time making it and then things went a little crazy around my house! Adaline turned 1 so we had a small celebration and some cake! It is a nice mile stone although I am a little sad that the time went by so quickly! I can't imagine how my father must feel about having so many grandchildren and the time that has gone by since I was turning 1! I hope he has a great day and I hope all of your special father figures in your lives have a great day as well. Time goes by way to fast!

Enjoy!
