No Cracks About Your Age.....................

Hi before I start I just want to explain to those who don't know that right now I am unable to work due to health reasons and this means right now I am unable to buy a new camera and the one I have is only a cheap 5 mega pixel one which means the focus is not as clear as I would hope it to be unfortunately so I hope you can understand,I did have a lady comment on my last post about the quality of my photo and thats why I felt I had to explain I hope its ok that i still post,blog and enter challenges as this is the one thing that I love doing.Anyway enough about that .
Tonights card is one I have made for my dads birthday the image and the sentiment is from a set called Ethel and Murray set 2 from creative expressions and its a real fun set which I have had for some time.The papers are from Basic Grey and I thought the perfect embellishment would be buttons.
Again I do apologise about the quality of the photograph I will be getting a new camera as soon as I can I promise.
