For this sketch, I used a piece of paper from an old encyclopedia. The first time I ripped a page from this book, I felt very guilty, but it is getting easier. I printed the hymn on typing paper that I stained with coffee. I made the little baby's breath and roses. The sentiment is from a Mark's Finest Papers set called black eyed susans for encouragement. I thought that this ms edge punch finished it off.

This is beautiful! I would find it very hard to rip a page from a book, but an outdated encyclopedia is OK! A clever idea for use on a card.

This is a stunning, fantastic card. LOVE your use of music and the page from the encyclopedia. I believe if something isn't being used, it should be repurposed, you've done exactly that. Love the spray of flowers, too. This card is fun to visually explore.
