Music a la Carte from Artful INKables

Hello ~ Hope you all had a great weekend. I had a great time yesterday because I had time to do a little stamping. It was raining most of the day...the "good" kind of rain that you love to hear when it comes down on the roof. Just a very comfortable day.

Today is a "New Release" day from Artful INKables. I am excited to reveal some of the new stamps...And this is also "BLOG HOP" day. I made this card using "Music a la Carte" The background paper is mulberry paper that I picked up at the Dollar Store...I used Nestabilities Labels 4. The copper paper is from stash...I heat embossed the guitar and the sentiment in Ranger Copper Embossing Powder. The flowers came from SU's flower punch. I used spacers that I bought from Michaels and put SU's Pretties Kit pearls in the middle. I also added a couple of gold Swarovski Crystals to the sides of the guitar.




Please "hop" on over to Joy's Blog so you can see her beautiful work of art using these new images!






Wishing you all the very best of weeks !

I love the sentiment with this set. That's a wonderful combo with the guitar! Gorgeous brads and pearls. I know the kind of rain you're talking about and, yes, it is comforting...especially knowing you're safe and sound in your cozy home.
