Music Is A Gift From God!
















This is a card that I made for my piano teacher.  My daughter has been taking piano lessons for 4 years.  I decided about 2 years ago that I wanted to attempt to learn piano.  I had never played an instrument before, and had no clue how to read music.  I just wanted to do something for myself.  It has gone very well.  My piano teacher has been very patient and kind.  I wanted to tell her thank you!

The yellow paper is from DCWV Citrus Stack.  I found an old hymnal at a second hand book store and used a page out of it to make the flower and used it for the strip at the top of the card.  I inked the edges of the yellow paper with charcoal cat eye chalk ink.  I distressed the sheet music with Tim Holtz Tea Dye Distress Ink.  I used a stamp that I found at a resale shop in my area for the music notes.  I couldn't get a good pic of the inside of the card, but it has musical notes and says The gift of music is a gift from God.  I added a yellow button with twine to the flower and ribbon.

As always, thanks for taking the time to stop by and visit my blog.  Your comments and suggestions are always welcome.
