Music Is Fun!

I often wonder why it is that everyone in my family is musical - except me. Members of my family play piano, organ, guitar, drums, bassoon, tuba and bagpipes. My five nieces have voices like angels and harmonize perfectly. I love music and studied piano but I just don't have any virtuosity. But I can make a sewing machine sing!

I photocopied music from a music book to create the "sheet music" because I had no DSP with music, trimming away all printed information. (Hmmm... copyright?) The music paper was adhered to the black card base. The paper with musical instruments was backed with craft foam and adhered. The partial keyboard was die cut from black cardstock adhered to white and adhered to the card. The circle and sentiment were die cut and adhered.

The metal "gems" were added in keeping with the sketch. The inside of the card was lined with white cardstock and decorated with a scrap of musical patterned paper.

This card is being submitted to:
