And a One and a Two and a Three.........

 Challenge #455 at Shopping Our Stash is.......Musical Notes, we want to see musical themed projects. Not many of my friends, followers and family will get the header, if you remember let me know the band leader's name.  I did have fun with this card first I googled music cards and it didn't have a link to it but I pretty well cased it. Getting towards the end of September I packed up things that I figured I wouldn't need, it will only be a few more weeks until I close for the winter. Even after I'm done I will be making several trips to bring all my crafting supplies and things from the pantry cupboard home, next where do I find homes. 


  • This was an easy card to make (with the exception of the planning of circles)  Since I was embossing the white layer (a cuttlebug dot folder eorn old) I wanted to stablize it by backing it with black, I think B&W is just classy. the music layer is from Stamp'in up and I have had it a few years. Since I am not versed in "music"  say the "line of notes" is elevated with some clear dots. The small music notes are from Die-namics.  The sentiment is from Hero Arts (2003)



  • I cut 2 of the music dies with heavy 100 pound cardstock and glued them together and added some clear dots to elevate it, 

I found this very ancient wood mount stamp from the Artful Stamper that was in London Ontario, they even had a store at the Galleria mall and I was know to frequent it often.  I chose the sentiment as it is for a very, very good friend.  I don't often use washi tape but I found a small roll in my stash and it seemed fitting to go along with the music die cuts.


Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget to check out the Music Notes the rest of the Design Team have made, you will find them HERE.

Beautiful music card! Black and white is a perfect choice for this - classy all around.

OMG!! I didn't get it when I saw the title but then, I read the comments and it clicked!!!
Love this card, the window with the sheet music is the perfect background for your musical die.
Black and white is the perfect combination for this card.
Stay healthy and safe.
