The Gift of Music



This is the second of the two swap cards I made for Jeanette’s newest forest swap on SCS—the theme is “Music in the Forest”.  I realize there is nothing “forestry” on this card—However…..the forest is the place we visit and chat and chat some more.  We were directed to make a card that reminds us of music.  Thanks to the inspiration by my friend Darlene, I have inked up one of the few D. Morgan stamps I have and love the sentiment around the outside--The Gift of Music is a Gift From God.

I also placed some washi tape on the inside—I just bought it this past week at Mike’s!

I LOVE IT!!! I tried & tried to use this stamp for the swap, but it just wasn't coming together for me, so I changed direction. But I love your card! The colors on the image really make it sing! Love the washi tape too. Excellent card!
Hugs!
