Today I am showing a birthday card in a music theme. I always like the kind of polish style of cards. I am not that good at making them but this is what I came up with.
I used musical designer papers from Lemoncraft. I used the distress tool of Tim Holtz to make the edges. After that I inked up the edges of the card with Distress Ink Vintage Photo. I then pierced the holes all across the borders and stitched them using ecru crochet yarn by hand. I added a white die cut doily to the middle and placed the guitar on that. I die cut some white and brown leaves and branches and inked those as well. For the flowers I dipped into my stash to find the matching colors for this card. Sometimes if I am out of inspiration I make a whole bunch of flowers to have on hand when needed. So all the flowers are made by myself. I also added a few small butterflies of Spellbinders die cuts. The letters are from a Concord & 9th alphabet set.
I will be adding this to the following challenge:
Hobbyvision #148 - Music
TGIF #525 - Paper Flowers
Little Red Wagon #807 - D Is For Die Cut
Everybody Art #579 - Birthday
Seize The Birthday #305 - Flowers
Till next time

So creative, Renate! I particularly love the color palette too. This is a card that should be framed. Thanks for sharing your talent with us at Seize the Birthday.

This is so pretty! I love the flowers around the guitar, and the colour scheme is very soothing. Thanks for playing along with us at Seize The Birthday.
ReplyDeleteWow, such a beautiful and creative music card. I also love the color combination. Blue, white, and brown look fantastic together. And the stitched edges enhance the beautiful paper. Gorgeous roses around the stunning guitar and an interesting arrangement of the half pearls. Truly a great piece of work.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this amazing card in the current Everybody Art Challenge.
