This is my card for the MMTPT406 challenge "Do Re Me...oh Fiddle Fee...Where is My Cup of Tea". Our cards are going to Polly, a retired school teacher who gave free music lessons to underprivileged children. She loves art, gardening, scripture, music and kids. Unfortunately, Polly suffered severe injuries an a car accident, and her recovery has been very slow. She needs some Teapotter cheer!
I found this adorable image of a children's band online, and thought it would be perfect for Polly's card. I opened the image in Photoshop, added the background and sentiment, and drop shadows. It was printed, die cut to size and matted with a scalloped frame before being attached to the card base. The hardest part about making this card was attaching all the tiny hearts and stars!
As always, thanks for looking!

Your fussy cutting is always impeccable but your digital fussy cutting is always so perfect! You make it sound so easy! I would have thought finding that awesome image would take the most time. Outstanding job with the subtle drop shadows! LOVE this card for her!

What an adorable image of the children's band, and your background with the "drop shadows" (?) is gorgeous! Love the way you made it stand out with the scalloped yellow layer too - like it needed any help at all to SHINE IN THE GALLERY like it does!

Beautiful, happy little faces. This reminds me of a song we sang in church school when I was very young ("Jesus loves the little children of the world.....").
