Get Creative Card Challenge 5th May

 

Its the 5th of the month and over at Get Creative and we have a new card challenge for you. The theme is to make a card for " an older person " Being a teenager myself ( well I am in my mind and if I don't look in the Mirror ) I had to use all of my imaginative skills. This is what I came up with and I hope the " older person "  whoever they are will like it  so go on put your hand up and tells us your opinion.


For my card I used some lovely paper from Websters pages , the stamp is from Hero Arts which I embossed with Ranger Red Brick embossing powder, a couple of pearls and ribbons and a little birdie to top it of.

Why not pop over to Get Creative and see what the rest of the talented Design Time members have come up with we have some wonderful blog candy up for grabs again this month.

On another note I have been given The stylish blogger award by two new followers who I have met through the LIM challenges  Massofhair and Valerie I would like to thank these two lovely ladies for this award it's very much appreciated. To be honest I just couldn't limit my choice to so few people so would like to pass it on to all of you wonderful crafty bloggers out there ! To me you are all stylish.

    Well now since I am younger than you, and you are a teenager maybe this cards not aimed at me, but I'm a Nan now, so maybe technically it is...
    Whatever....I really like it, love the colour, the butterflies and the pearl, and the shape, I'm a fan of squares, rectangles, circles etc, not triangles really....
    Well done!
