Challenge Title: Honor your Elders
Hostess: Kathleen Lammie
Keyword: HYCCT1327
Date: Sunday, October 27th, 2013
Thank you so much for checking out my challenge! In our culture, our elders are not always held in such high regard. Think about it for a minute. Was there some older person in your life who really made a difference? It could be a family member, a teacher or professor, healthcare professional, a clergy member, a neighbor, so many possibilities! So lets make a card to honor your elders. Extra points for vintage and/or using gold. If you have time, let us know who you are honoring and why. Special thanks to Stacy, Dina and KelliJo for making examples!

When I was 8 years old my family moved into a rental home, the neighbors were an older couple and leery of our family (4 boys and 1 girl) but from the first time I met them I adored them...over the next 10 years I was their constant companion and helper as they aged...
