Good morning and Happy Halloween.
My younger brother Johnny was born on Halloween and to top things off, he had red hair. lol. I made this Halloween Birthday card in remembrance of him, as we lost him several yeas ago to cancer. The Buttons and Blooms Collection worked perfectly for what I had in mind.
