This is for today's Inspiration Challenge 175 Grandin Road. I tell you, there are several peices I am inspired by. I think I am even going to buy a few of the pieces for my home. The on that grabbed me the modt to make a card with is this one.
I love anything to do with music. I changed the trumpet to a French Horn, because it is what I played for 7 years in school. I embossed the images with white ep on black. Then I took a paint brush and bleach to paint the stroke onto it. I popped them up with demensionals. It is hard to tell on the pic, but the base is black on black popped up with demensionals. It looks cool IRL.

Oh, I eyed this one too, but didn't have the right stamps for it. Love what you have done here.

This is stunning. It stands out in the gallery. The way you have the instruments with the bleached strokes behind it is very eye catching. I love how you put the sheet music behind it all. Beautiful card.
