Music


My favorite younger grandson (I also have a favorite older grandson) will be 16 this month.  He loves music and plays a mean trumpet.  So for his birthday card, I used the Cricut Quarter Note Cartridge  to cut the trumpet and the notes and the Cricut Craft Room Basics to cut the heart.  To keep with the Heart to Heart contest, I used Blue for the heart.  For the embossing on the heart, I used the Cricut Cuttlebug Floral Bouquet and sanded over the top with Close to my Heart fine sandpaper purchased from Katie's Corner.  All of this altering means it fits the Bitten by the Bug 2 Challenge this week, also!  On the inside of the card I used the Music of Life Close to my Heart stamp "Music is Love in Search of a Word with Close to my Heart Outdoor denim ink.   Since my card includes so many die cuts, I'm also sending it over to Scrapbooker PhD where the challenge is to use your die cuts!
