Travel Mt Rushmore Card

Wanted to use a travel spot that I had visited and could make a card to resemble. I know hubby (he had facial hair back then) & I (I had longer hair then) traveled to Mt. Rushmore over 21 years ago (this was before daughter was born) and you can see us in the photo next to the card.
