Where did the years go?

 


This is a card I gave to my chiropractor today, as it is the last time I will see her. She has sold the business and is retiring. I've been going to her for over 30 years! So it will seem strange to have someone else after all these years, although I have seen the occasional sub when she was on maternity leave etc.

I made this card before here for a retirement. This time I switched the colour to be able to use this patterned paper. I also added a neglected SW flower die set, using the same patterned paper and snippets of green card. 

A chance also to use my new hot foiling stamps from Spellbinders with some green foil to balance the design. They only arrived on Friday, so impressed myself by using them so soon.

I'm entering this card into The Neglected Stuff challenge - the flower die.
Also, linking up with Darnell and her drive to help us help each other over creative slumps. This week it's dies. I'm also linking up with her NBUS challenge - for the hot foiling stamp.

What a great retirement card. I love the soft background with the green. I am sure she will appreciate this card and I can understand why you will miss her. 30 years is a long time xx

What a great card for your chiropractor's milestone retirement event, Lynn! It's an amazing clock and frame and the pp is a lovely subtle background. I love how you added the matching flowers and balanced them with the green sediment! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS and for joining I.D.E.A.S. this week!📌(I wish you luck with her replacement!) Hugs, Darnell
