I was hard at work making this card, coloring the image, getting the layout I wanted, etc..when hubby walked through the room! STOP - Put on the brakes - WHOA! "Hey", he said, "now THAT IS WHAT I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS!!!" How easily they forget - I said, "Don't you remember that this is exactly how I looked before I got my hair cut?"!!!!! After a couple of "eye rolls" and him saying "Yeah right", I decided that I'd actually give this to him for Christmas. I'm thinking of putting it in a huge box and literally "wrapping it up"! So then I had to change the entire outlook on this card - and make it to look like a little wrapped up gift!
