Dasher Deer Card

As I am typing this, my husband's plane should be landing at the local airport. He's been gone all week on a business trip and he's coming home for just a short while...pretty much to switch bags and then leave to go to his dad's to go hunting this weekend. (sigh) The kids don't even know he's stopping home because they are already in bed and won't see him until Sunday. It's been a long week and I'm so tired! I hate being "on duty" all day and all night. I look forward to Sunday and especially Monday morning when Jim can deal with middle-of-the-night and early morning "wake up calls".

I managed to put together a card for him today with an encouraging word for this weekend. I slipped it in his bag so that he'll find it when he's at his dad's house.

I used the Dasher stamp, but I didn't want all of the antlers to show up, so I inked it with my marker and only colored part of it.
