A little bit of music

Whilst leafing through Stickeroos here yesterday, taking a little breather in between making bookmarks, I suddenly remembered a snippet of music patterned paper that would go with one particular Stickeroo - and so this card was born:
I used:

- 6" x 6 square cream card stock

- snippet of music patterned paper

- Penny Black Stickeroo from the 'Painted Vase' sheet

- snippets of SU 'Wisteria Wonder' card stock, as a backing to the Stickeroo (always cut your card larger, place the Stickeroo on and then trim it 'cos those Stickeroos are a real pain (in fact well nigh impossible) to budge once stuck. One strip of card was punched using MS's 'Traditional Scallop' border punch

- a snippet of gold edged cream organza ribbon, tied in a bow

- three deep mauve pearls, just because

It spooks me a bit the way the image almost looks like vellum with the music paper showing through from underneath :)

  7. I thought you had cut the vase out of the vellum paper too, which gives me a great idea because I love this effect. That's a cool sticker and a great card! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina ♥
