For Kathleen's challenge, I chose this image to honor my aunt and grandmother, who taught me the value of sending cards and letters. They were both diligent about sending cards and letters to loved ones to remind them they are thinking of them. I think I get bonus points for going vintage, but couldn't figure out how to incorporate gold!

What a lovely story behind your card - and it certainly qualifies as lovely vintage with the old typewriter and your treatment of it. Amazing sponging - it's so warm and glowing looking.
