HI Everyone, a post from me that isn't scheduled, at last. This card was for my Brother in law, who has dementia, Bless him, he asked who was 90! It was the first card he opened. Anyhow, quite a simple card, I used a wonderful "cut" and free alphabet and numbers. I printed the sentiment out onto card, then die cut it. I attached it to a die cut holographic gold card. I cut the numbers out with my Silhouette and placed them onto the printed sentiment layer. Using the off cuts, I added them to the sentiment. The card is 8x8. I was pleased with the outcome. He was too.

A lovely card Faith and just perfect for BIL’s special birthday xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a special card for your 90 year old brother in law. I love the gold numbers with the party elements. Hopefully he will realize it's a special birthday for him in the midst of his dementia. Turning 90 is quite special for anyone and not all of us will be able to enjoy that!
ReplyDeleteDementia is a terrible illness my mother has it and my dad had Alzheimer's. The card is fabulous beautifully blingy and worthy of such a grand number.
