This is for Lisa's fun Ways to Use It challenge - Music Moves Me.
Lisa wrote of her incredible musical skills, it reminded me of my primary school days. I had the most wonderful music teacher, she knitted me (and a bunch of other tone deaf kids) special little sticks to hit the triangle with..... hmmmm....
This is for a girlfriend who is a music buff but isn't really into flowers and ribbon, so I used grungy stringy raffia and green flower. The flower was massive, so I pulled off petals until it was a size I liked.
Thank you for looking.

I haven't seen the challenge yet but this is so cool! Love the keyboard happy birthday!! Love how you can take a pre-made flower and tear it apart! I never thought of that...would probably have been afraid to try that but...well, now maybe I will!
Love it Susie!!

Very neat keyboard card, Susie! Funny to think of you as a kid, standing there hitting a triangle with a knitted beater. Hee. Only YOU would pluck the petals from a flower to get it down to the right size. LOL

I love the keyboard stamp and the fantastic Happy Birthday die cut. That flower with the stringy raffia is so pretty! Black and White cards are fantastic and the hint of yellow is the perfect touch. Thank you so much for making a card for my challenge. Hugs!

LOVE the bold positive/negative of your black/white die cutting. The keyboard is right off the Steinway and the pretty rose and raffia a sweet touch. You have such an eye for design....plus MANY other artistic talents.

The raffia is a nice touch for your friend. I could play the triangle too! LOL!
