Sketch 72 and Mom. . .

 

My mom is coming for a visit! She’ll be here Friday. I have been trying to keep her stocked up on some pretty cards to send to her friends, since a lot of them live here in Idaho and she is out in Tennessee. 

As always, I’m inspired by this weekend’s sketch from Stars & Stamps. Mom loves music. She has always been a wonderful musician, singer and pianist. She provided me with all sorts of music lessons as a kid. I still have my love of music – and love to incorporate it in my art whenever I can. I found some beautiful papers in the Performance stacks by DCWV. If you haven’t seen them, go look! They are gorgeous. . . and I have lots of coordinating goodies to go with. . . Here is my first card from the stack, and I will post more from the stack later on. . . I’ve downloaded a ton of musical quotes for sentiments and I am shooting for at least a dozen cards for Mom. Here is sketch #72 and my first card. What can you do with this fun sketch? Be sure to post it over at S&S!

DCWV stacks are my fave, I'll have to look for this one. Love the shiny instruments. Perfect sentiment too. Enjoy your time with your mom.

I love this card. Your sentiment is just perfect. I have someone that I send cards to that is a music buff, so I just may have to CASE your card.

Nice job Nancy. I love the DCWV stacks too. Somehow this one escaped me but the musical theme would be great for masculine deisgns too so I may have to hunt one down.
