We are throwing a Garden Party for Francesca who is turning 75 this month. She also loves Elvis among other things.
My favorite "Elvis Era" were his movies. I know they were all the same in just different locations, but I still enjoyed them. And when I saw today's Tea Party write-up, Blue Hawaii jumped right into my thoughts.
This is my only Elvis stamp and I couldn't figure out how to put a lei on him; so I put a garland of bright tropical blooms around the card instead.
I checked out the Gallery before posting today and noticed that several guests have invited Elvis to this party and some others have included music in theirs. I can't think of a much better way to enjoy the day than listening to your favorite music in the garden. I hope Francesca enjoys hers. I hope you're enjoying your favorite music too; maybe in your craft room -- another great place to listen to tunes. TFL.

Spectacular! The colors, the Elvis image, and the design are outstanding. The BG with the music paper and the flowers with your color/shading are all fantastic...

Oh my gosh I love the Elvis silhouette. I did a double take as I saw the silhouette and then scrolled down then back up again because I did not see what it was. Really fantastic card and love the bright cheery flowers too.
