When I read the theme for this VSN, my grandmother immediately came to mind ~ her middle name was Mae, and she absolutely loved springtime flowers. So, for my challenge, you will be making a card based on my grandmotherÂ’s personality.
First, you will be making a Joy Fold card because she brought so much joy into my childhood and into the lives of everyone she met.
Next, you will need to use the color RED on your card. Red was her very favorite color~red curtains, red cars, red satin sheets, red clothing, and ALWAYS fire engine red nail polish!
Then, you will need to incorporate something diva-worthy, as she thought of herself as the consummate diva! She walked, talked, and behaved like she was a princess!
Finally, BLING IT UP! She loved jewelry of all kinds~inexpensive, extravagant, simple, gaudyÂ…you name it, and she had itÂ…and wore it like a ROCK STAR! So glam up your card with some tasteful or over-the-top sparkly embellishments!

I love the nostalgic feel of this card. The combination of the dp and the flowers give it almost an antique look. This is a lovely card, and perfect for the challenge.
