Welcome to another challenge from the team at Freshly Made Sketches! This week our hostess is the fabulous Jen Brum and she has a classic and versatile sketch for us.
Now, I completely got the orientation of the sketch wrong, as you will see. 99% of the cards I make are top-folding portrait, but for some reason, I went for a landscape layout for this layout, so apologies to Jen!
My fellow teamie, Kim, is on the Taylored Expressions design team and when I saw her cards featuring these fun music themes a month or so ago, I just had to have them! The blue panel was sponged with distress inks, leaving the center lighter than that outsides. I then over-stamped with a music background stamp and Stone ink before adding the sentiment with black ink and clear-embossing over the top. Now admit it, aren't you singing that song now? 😁
Thanks for visiting. Check out how the rest of the team have used the sketch (with the correct orientation, I might add!)
I'm linking this card up to a few challenges: Cardz for Guyz Love You, The Paper Players Will You Be My Valentine and Happy Little Stampers February CAS Challenge

It really is a fun set - and I haven't seen anything quite like it!! I love the way you faded the music into the sentiment - it absolutely glows!! And the accents of the record and music are perfectly placed!
What a great take on our blue theme Karren and I love the stamps you used - super CAS design!
Thanks so much for joining this month's Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge
