I was enticed by the air colors today, using blues, greys and white. I don't actually gravitate toward any one color group, it's more mood du jour with me. The air is so cool and we have a soft breeze - a perfect Cape Cod day! I cut a stencil using IO/Square Cutout. Stenciled with pearl embossing paste. After it dried, I colored random squares with SN pens and sponged chalk around the perimeter. Die cut MB/music motifs and FS/guitar from blue foil cs. Cut TL/sentiment and guitar center from silver foil cs. Added 6 teeny, tiny gems to guitar.

Priscilla, I LOVE this awesome mixed media piece and the wonderful AIR colors you used. Just the coolest card ever. Love how you used the embossing paste.

Priscilla, this turned out amazing. I love your stenciled BG and your coloring. I have yet to try this technique, and after seeing this, I just might try it out. A terrific card :-)

Love the mosaic look of your little tiles....remind me of the glass tiles seen so much in tilework these days. So pretty in the many tones of blue, Priscilla. You carried out the musical theme so well.

A definite WOW card! Love the blues and all the shine using foils! You have done amazing things with that guitar die. I LOVE that the pearl embossing paste still looks metallic when colored with alcohol markers! Beautifully designed and a definite favorite!
