Methuselah: noun

 an ancestor of Noah held to have lived 969 years
 
( sometimes I get these interesting tid bits when I look up a word such as this one: "Methuselah is currently in the bottom 30% of lookups on Merriam-Webster.com"....well, I still use it, does that mean I'm almost as old as Methuselah? )....no snickering out there!

( I used 6 strips of Tim Holtz idea-ology Tissue Tape, Symphony for my background )
 
 
Martha Stewart, die cut lace tags ( or a doily as us "common" people would say )
Autumn Leaves, Stampology- Talking in Circles stamp ( old as Methuselah but still good to go )
StazOn ink
DCWV, Shimmer Stack ( still my favorite stack )
Really Reasonable Ribbon

Hi Sandee, I think this is one of my favourites of your creations, it is beautiful, love the tissue tape background and the doily (I must be common then!) and a really lovely design. Hugs, Anne x

Clever way to follow the theme. Love that you used the washi tape for day six. I'm also common, since I call this a doily, too. Lace tags should NOT be round (grin)!

I love all of your words on the top of your posts!

The music notes on your card are so pretty!

Ooooo one I can copy, love it. Music to the eyes. BJ

Oh and I must be "posh" as a lace cut tag sounds so much better - LOL.
