Today is my husbands birthday!
This is the card he will not see in person until he comes home in three weeks.
I can tell you that 3 500 kilometers is a lot farther away than it sounds. The kids have been making plans of what we will do when he comes home on the May 24th long weekend, just for the weekend.
I hope we can cram it all in.
If he sees this post, Happy Birthday Sweetheart, we love you. ♥

I'm sure he is going to love it! Hope the 3 weeks goes by quickly for you.
awesome birthday card...masculine cards are always a challenge for me.
Tracey, this is so sweet! What an amazing card for your sweetie too...love the colors and that twine, very manly!
This is such a perfect guy card. I'm pinning, because I love everything about it--the colors, the layout, and the stamps you used. I hope James has as nice a birthday as a man can have who is missing his family--and I know you will have a great reunion in a few weeks.
Oh Tracey, this is a wondedrul guy card. I'm sorry you are not altogether on your DH birthday. I hope he knows how much he is missed and loved.
FANTASTIC masculine birthday ~ just love it!!! I am sure you are all just counting the days until the 24th!
The happiest of birthday wishes to your hubby Tracey! I'm sure he feels your love across the miles. His card is just perfect. Love the colors and patterns, great job!!
Happy Birthday to your Mister, Tracey! Your card is so manly with the tweedy design and twine and awesome button!!
I can only imagine how tough this separation is on everyone in the family. I do hope that he is enjoying the job itself to help take some of the painful sting out of being apart from you and the kids. Take care and hang in there!
This is such a cool masculine card, Tracey. I love the colors and the patterns, with just the perfect amount of embellishment for a masculine card. Best wishes to you all for the next three weeks!! I think I would go crazy...
This is a fantastic masculine card! You rocked this one Tracey! I'm sure hubby loved this! :)
