This card is for the sketch challenge at My Mind's Eye … papers are all from My Mind's Eye Stella and Rose Hattie Papers.
The theme is Fall and for me that means music … the sounds of marching band practice early in the morning (and memories of the many many early mornings I spent marching) … music playing in fall parades like today's Maple Leaf Festival … and singing songs around the bon fires in the cool fall air.
The guitar & sentiment are from Market Street Stamps' Hippy Chic for their First Anniversary Blog Party.
I paper-pieced the guitar (love how the subtle swirls of thepaper remind me of woodgrain) and added some tiny bling to decorate it.
I love your blog, I know I don’t tell you often enough. But I positively loved this card today!
I believe My Mind’s Eye are my favorite papers (but that is flexible). Fabulous work here, lady!
Have a great Sunday! The Penmaker and I are both down with some sort of bug… couldn’t get to church this morning, but have really enjoyed your blog… thanks so very much!
