Hello! Where does my mornings go? My intention this morning was to get this card posted early, well it's almost noon, so, I guess early is not happening. But, at least I do have a card for you. I decided I should get my Sketch For You To Try done which is the challenge where I do a sketch a month to get in on the prize at the end of the year. I have completed every month so far! The sketch this month, which I will show you, had three circles in the left hand corner. My first thought was the set of three music note dies I recently purchased. I paired them with one of the My Favorite Things sets where the girl Joline is holding an ipod and the coordinating stamps in the set are about music. Perfect, plus I think I have only stamped her a couple of times! Here is my card. And the sketch. Enjoy!
Wow, did you see the paper piecing I did on the little girl? That was a little crazy. The pieces were very tiny. I do want to note that I ran the pattern background paper through an embossing folder with music notes on it. I am not sure you can see it in the pic. Maybe if you click on it, you can see it in the close-up view! I very rarely use Vellum anymore but it was a perfect solution for this card because I knew I wanted to add the sentiment on the horizontal strip but I didn't want it to cover up the main image. I couldn't decide how to attach the vellum so that the tape wouldn't show and then I got the idea to just wrap the edges around the large panel! Good idea, huh? I rather like how the card came out. What do you think?
