Good Morning!  

Finally had some time to play in the craft room!

This card will be entered into the following Challenges;

Memory Box, Patterned Paper.

Scrapy Land, Anything Goes!

After over 2 years of discussing and coaxing my Father In Law has finally decided to sell his home and move to an Assisted Living Facility.  It is so beautiful and not far from his house that he will still see all of his friends and neighbors and he will take his car and still be able to get out and about under his own steam.  We, all of the kids, are happy and thrilled to see him find a good match.  

He may just meet his newest bestest friend here!

This card is for him:

I used the Designer Paper pack by PTI, Chocolate Remix.
