Ooops, no actually, the card isn't that old, it's only a few hours old, but it's for a hundred year old gentleman, (I was asked to make it) So, my attempts of tidying up my crafty space have gone right out the window again, and I'm now in twice as much mess. (Yay!)
Here's the card. It's 8x8. I've used a mixture of papers, My Minds Eye, The cars were a freebie from a magazine and the Prima Botanical is a 6x6 paper-stack which came free from Simply Cards and PaperCraft a few months back.
Most of the embossing Darice folders came from Crafter's Companion and the little clock charm came with a set from Craft's Beautiful. I've used lots of different shades and plain/embossed mirri/matt gold card for the cog's
That's about it. Thank you for stopping by!

Wow, what a fabulous card Lynn. Such a beautiful way to honour the gentleman. No-one would turn down the opportunity to make a card for a centenarian so the tidying up can wait a little longer. :0) Mo x
