Date Night

Well, I had a really nice evening.  My 13-year-old son took me out on a date.  We haven't done that in a while, so it was really nice to spend some special time with him.  He's such a little gentleman and wanted to open doors for me, and show me a good time.  My hubby was sleeping (he works nights, and tonight is a work night).  We just got back home in time to make some dinner and chill out.  I realize that I won't have him around forever, so I am very grateful for these special "date nights".  My husband does them with the girls as well.  It's an opportunity to make precious memories.

I'm entering a few challenges with this card, including the challenge at JustRite Stampers which you can find here:

They have asked entrants to follow the theme "Charm Me", and use a charm on your card.  My metal charm is in the center of my hand-cut felt flower.  It's a silver filagree charm and it's tucked in the flower center with a button attached to the top of it.  My stamp is from one of their lovely Nested Sentiments collections.
