Hi again! This is my second card for today, so if you missed the first one, please scroll down. My friend Mynnette introduced me to Make My Monday’s challenge blog, so I am making this card for their current challenge: Week 47 Men and Boys: Time.
The papers used in this card are Craftwell card stock, Tim Holtz Kraft Distress and Recollections white card stock. Distress Inks were used to color the background, using a Tim Holtz blending tool. The clocks are stamped using Stampabilities Clock Faces Background. I have had some time related acrylic stickers in my stash for a long time, so I was happy to pull them out and use them on this card. They help add more dimension and interest along with the Tim Holtz clock and gears.
I thought I might use this as my Dad’s Father’s Day card, but my DH thought that might not be a good idea since he has Alzheimer’s and time has actually stood still for him. So I’m not sure what I will use this one for.
NOW FOR THE CHALLENGES:

Neat mix here, I like the time pieces with a butterfly. I agree with your husband, about the Alzheimer's and this card. So sad, isn't it? I'm so sorry for your dad. :(
Beautiful card - thanks so much for joining us at MMM.
