Music in my Heart

Today I have another example using the Music from the Heart stamp set - can you tell I played with it for quite awhile when I sat down with this set? 

I chose a Whisper White card base and stamped on it with Memento Black ink to start with.  Next, I added a piece of Come to Gather designer series paper that was die cut with the Stitched rectangles framelits.  The trim behind the sentiment is some braided linen trim that I pulled apart a little bit and there are also a few Holiday rhinestones added for accents.

Supplies:

Music from the Heart

Memento Black, Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, Night of Navy ink

October Paper Pumpkin Alternative Cards

The first card in the pictures is the way the kit was designed for us.  The pictures make it difficult to see, but the snow and trees are shimmery white...

I added Pool Party and Early Espresso card stock bases for the two cards below as well as some die cuts using the Stitched Rectangles and Stitched Labels framelits.  The sentiment on the card on the right is from Itty Bitty Christmas.

A few similar variations on the next two...

And finally one using some Feels Like Frost specialty paper and Pretty Peacock foil sheets along with a small piece of Come to Gather designer series paper.
