Yesterday was my mother-in-law's 90th birthday.
She is a remarkable lady - still fit and active.
She has been a dancer all of her life and still teacher line dancing at U3A.
We will celebrate with her at the weekend but Nigel took her out for lunch and took her the card I made.
I had been the family archivist and scanned all of her old photos years ago for everyone. Consequently I had lots of old photos to work with and so I made a photo montage of her through the past 90 years. Took a while but looked good when finished.
The trouble was the numbers were so large the only thing I could fit in to decorate it was some very old peel offs. I always swore I would never use peel offs but they were all I had that worked.
Ah well.
So she is now 90 and I just FEEL 90!
Today I am thankful for
- being able to bring joy
- technology
there are times when peel offs are the right decision and this is absolutely one. What a fantastic card :)

What an amazing idea for the card! Very cool that you are using some ancient stash ;-) I'm pretty sure I had the same peel offs back in the day. :-D
