HYCCT1327 Honor Your Elders Chat Thread

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!

OH WOW! Hmmm. vintage, quilting & sewing.....something I'll be thinking about while at the movies with my girls.

[muscrat]

Vintage is another of those things I don't do well. Maybe if I had more practice? ;) My card is in honor and memory of my prayer warrior MIL and one of my dearest friends. She is missed and left a wonderful mind full of memories. HYCCT1327 Vintage for Mom by muscrat - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Here's mine, dedicated to Edith. She turned 96 on Friday and still stamps a ton of cards. I hope I am so fortunate. She uses a cuttlebug, embossing folders, die cuts and colors with copics.

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...

The sunburst is for all the times we sat outside on their hill under a tree and we talked about life...

Don't usually get a card done on Sundays, but it has been one of those days, and a little ink therapy was needed.
