Love coupons

Happy Friday y'all!!
I know, I know for most of you the day is almost over...
And for most of you, this weekend will be an hour shorter than other weekend....
WHAT you say??  Ok, well here in the US twice a year most states change the clocks..
either (as my mom taught me) Spring Forward orrrrr Fall Back
Well there will be none of that for this girl...
Nope, here in the (usually) sunny state of Arizona we don't change the clocks...
The occurrence does however make it that much more difficult for me 
to get a hold of my family on the East Coast... (insert Sad Face here!)

Ok, so I'm apparently in a rambling sort of mood... 
Today I have a cute little project to share with you all...
Do you want the back story?? 
here's the quick version... When mom was here in Feb, she sent me a "Romancing your Husband" challenge
and one of the suggestions was a coupon booklet.
Honestly, I never really know how hubby is going to respond to these things.  
So, I made this booklet...

Here's one of the coupons
Can I just tell you all... 
I was overwhelmed with his response...
So see how I did the holes on the side??  well you can't see in the pics, but I then cut a little slit
so that hubby could easily slide them out...
apparently they started to fall out...
So hubby got this board,
 and now has them at the entrance to the bedroom.
yep, he walks past them 10 - 20 times a day..
Today he was back in the bedroom, and got real quiet...
so I wandered back there, and he's just standing there staring at the coupons.
"What're you doing" I ask.... 
"Planning our next day off together" he says...
Ha ha ha I just love it...
Even better... he has decided that he is going to add his own coupon to the back of these, 
and give them back to me.
Today he came in the craft room and started poking around and asking me how to use 
some of the things in there... then he disappeared again... I will share his return coupons when I have one!!! 

I hope you all are having a very crafty and fun weekend!!
