Lovely challenge! Like Lisa, I play/played quite a few instruments, and learned to play by ear before I could read music. I think we still have a saxophone around here, but no piano and I sold my little Eb clarinet years ago. I still have 3 guitars, so I'm happy
For my music card, the large treble clef was stamped, colored & fussy cut. I stamped part of the image on another piece, masked it a bit and stamped the bird & music bar. After coloring I die cut it & added the die cut & embossed fish pattern behind it. I actually die cut this twice out of the aqua & on the smaller one, I cut it across the middle & shortened it. Since the long oval covers the seam, you donÂ’t even see it. In between the two aqua layers, I put a piece of the Chalkboard paper collection.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups, the inside & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Oh I love hearing of all the musical instruments you played. I just loved picking up new instruments and playing around until I figured out the sounds then playing. Your card is a beautiful master piece. That chalk board paper in the back is a great addition to get the blue to pop on the card and genius cutting the blue down to fit on your card. Thank you for playing in my challenge.
