Happy birthday, Honey

It's my hubby's birthday today.....

So lucky to have you! xoxox

I made him a little something. I put together an album of pictures from our trip to Italy last October like the one above, and covered the album in some Italy-inspired organic scooter fabric by Jennifer Moore for Monaluna. (I will make you all a little tutorial on this, hopefully next week!).





Just one of the many happy memories I have shared with my guy :-)

It is also a family tradition to decorate the house with birthday signs and balloons. So, on the eve of the big day, the kids and I were hard at work. Check out what they came up with....look closely at the spelling!

Think we are maybe hitting the video games a bit too hard lately at our house?!?! Blame it on an extended winter!!




Happy birthday, Honey!

Awwww :) The kids and their posters are adorable! The photo album is absolutely delightful - my aunt would go ga-ga over that scooter fabric! Thanks for including the info on it so I can see if I can find some.

No way! Today is my hubby's birthday too! And I also put together a photo album for him. Mine isn't as lovely or creative as yours though. Maybe I'll use your tutorial to fancy it up later. :)
