This is for The Free4All challenge to be inspired by a memory, and for the Stmap2Spend Challenge to be inspired by Elvis since his birthday was the 8th when the challenge was issued. That one encouraged me to get the guitar stamp out, and the memory is of my DGS being my Techie, even though he has a business and people pay him to be there techie. Such a gentleman, as he always asks me "what can I do for you grandma?" He also plays the guitar and plays my favorite hymns for specials at church. Love him and am so proud of him. This is for a thank you for working on my computer at Christmas time!
The background was a leftover and I thought the guitar went well on it. I saw a similar card on Pinterest. The music paper is from an old hymn book I have. The page I used was a Thank you hymn, but then I used the wrong side!! Silly me...
Look string for extra imaginary points! LOL
Thanks for looking.

Sharon, such a wonderful card, and thanks for sharing about your grandson. He sounds like a really great guy, and so caring of his grandma. I love the hymn and the vintage look achieved by the torn edges. The bg of the image panel is cool too.
