Back in November Ardyth posted a thank you card that I loved--anything with music and I'm pretty much there. Back then I did a quick mock up and over the holidays worked it up into the real deal. A really really simple card.
Starting at 1/2" from the bottom, I scored the card front every 3/4" to create the illusion of white keys. Then I cut five 2.5 x 0.5" strips of black card stock for the minor keys. These were glued down. As a last step I stamped the sentiment just over the top of a black key. Next time I may stamp it in a bright color for that little pop.
The Details: PTI white card stock, Pop Tone Black Licorice Card Stock, MFT Contempo Cage sentiment, Memento Tuxedo Black
I'm entering this in Less is More Pick a Past Sketch (#46 Music), Crazy for CAS Anything Goes, Keep It Simple #30 Anything Goes, Here Come the Boys #66 Anything Goes.
After seeing the card online, it seems drab so I've taken a pic on yellow and red. Ardyth so had it right putting it on a bright color. Way sassier. I'm going to dissect and mount it on the yellow. Or maybe the red. I like both. You'll just have to wait and see!
I absolutely LOVE IT, the simplicity of it, it gives lots of elegance!
