This is way out of my normal zone, especially after a wonderful and fun teapot Tuesday with Mothermark. I love the sketch Rox. You really know how to come up with some beauties. Okay, here's what I did.....
I am using two new stamp sets this month from Clear Dollar Stamps today. My sheet music stamp was smaller than the #1 panel, but I used it anyway. I stamped it a couple of times on white cs and clear ep it. used the distressing edge tool then scrunched it up in to a ball to distress the whole thing. I ran the ink pad over top and on the edges. Put this on some misc. dp. Then put the #1 panel on a white card with sponged edges.
#2 panel is just black cs.
#3 panel is a circle cut out of misc. dp using my coluzzle, added faux stitches on the edges.
#4 panel, I stamped the keyboard and sentiment clear eb'ing both. Colored black keys with a copic marker and the white keys with copic paint. Sponged edges and around images. Faux stitched the two corners.
Put the rest of the panels together. Stamped the tuba using versa mark and gold ep, colored it in with copic marker then cut it out and popped it up on the #2 & #3 panels.
Put some cork dots in the corners to help this out. Not sure if I like it yet. So, what do you think?........TFL :0)

LOVE your musical card. However, since I played French Horn in Band in HS (back when the dinosaurs roamed the earth!) I thought I would let you know that your musical horn is not a tuba, but a French Horn! Makes the card more sophisticated, NO? Mais Oui!

Now that's just striking and lovely, Mutnik!! I do believe that this is a French Horn, as one of my DS's played on in the school band for a number of years! ;) Love your beautifully vinatged background paper with the musical score! Beautifully done card, Kathy! It is Kathy isn't it? I've gotten so used to calling you Mutnik!!!
