WT156 WT167 Mandolin Dad

Photo Details

Poster: StampGroover

I made this card using two different challenges...My Dad plays the Mandolin and I wanted to make him a special Fathers Day card...So I found this mandolin, musical chords for a mandolin and a box of mandolin strings image...using the computer (WT156) I printed out the different images and resized to what I wanted...colored in the Mandolin and using pop dots giving each layer a different dimension...This also fell under WT167...I found a musical note punch at Mikes for a dollar so I punched out several on black cardstock for the inside to fall out when he opens the card...TFL!

Cute card and what a nice idea, that the musical notes will fall out once he opens...

Great idea. I've been looking for musical instruments to go with the Cuttlebug Allegro folder. They were right under my nose all the time. Your card is delightful and I know your Dad will love it.

This is fabulous. I love how you coordinated everything & the nores on the inside- very clever.

Excellent job with the instruments! Been thinking about what to do for DS's music teacher - now I know.
