My favorite holiday is quickly approaching! (Yay!) So when I stopped by Bettijo’s house a few days ago, I brought with me some printouts of a patriotic banner I was working on. Her little Attalie loves holiday décor, so I thought it would be fun to surprise her with a little project—Aimee style! The printables…
