We have a very busy day ahead with a special "Meet the players, have some fun and some food" event at the Frisco Roughriders Baseball that our daughter was invited to after being recognized as an "Educational MVP" at her school.
Then as soon as that is done we'll be whizzing back home for the England V US game, with lots of loud shouting and maybe a few beers too! Then tomorrow morning hubby and our oldest son go off to Scout Camp for a week so there will be all the last minute stuff to finish for that, I'll be in need of a break too!
So yesterday I managed to make the card that is now winging its way "across the pond" to my Dad in England (don't worry he doesn't check my blog)
It is a lot more simple than my usual cards as postage is so expensive for the square, lumpy, bumpy cards especially Air Mail. And also every time I send a square card home it takes weeks instead of days.

I actually used the same image last year for the card for my hubby so I think I better find a different one for him this year ;)
Have a wonderful weekend!
