My Hubby's Birthday card hehe (Dr. Digi's image)

Hi crafty friends,

Hehe, my husband is right crazy into a stupid X-Box game at the moment so whenever he's at home, he's sneaking into our games room and it's driving me up the wall haha!! I thought this image from Dr Digi's was perfect for him hehe, he found it amusing too! Hope you get a giggle out of it. The game is Call of Duty in case you're wondering, do you know any addicted gamers that aren't kids or am I the only one stuck with one at the moment lol?? Maybe I need to set up a "Gamers Anonymous" meeting for friends and family!
