heres my DT card and as you know i love vintage and oldie worldy so got the old grey matter thinking...i had no images suitable so i went back in time to the start of the Ancient Olympic traditions..the rules then so different too now days ..did you know that men were only allowed to participate and in the nude...mmm how nice.and for winning they were given the lorel leaf headress and a olive branch.. as a sign of their talent and for peace and that not only were men good at running...wrestling... fighting but poets and authors would tell there stories or read their poems in other parts of Mount Olympia....and it was the only time during the contest that all nations in the surrounding areas would be guaranteed safe passage..heres my card photos of Greece and lighting of the flame i made the torch from a jellwery head and added strips of golden ribbon to represent the flame and a loreal headress out of lace coloured with promarker..well hope you like my twist on the Olymics ...cant wait to lookat at your interpretation ...hugs sassyxxxxx
