Thinking of You

Having to mow the lawn the other day made me think of how tiring it is....  especially on a hot and humid day.  With this in mind, I usually don't mow...  my husband does.  All the time.  So I decided to make a card to let him know that I was thinking about him and how much I appreciate him.  He's my 'super-sweetie'  :)
Coincidentally, the theme for challenge #19 at My Craft Spot this week is "you make me smile" where you are to make a project that lets someone know you are thinking of them.
