Stampin'B Challenge - Music

Joanne asked us to use music on our Stampin'B cards this week. I used the opportunity to showcase a new stamp set from Mark's Finest Papers -- Grandma's Boudoir. The cameo was stamped twice: once in gold and again in pumpkin. I cut the center of the pumpkin image out, around what would be the stone. I then stamped it with Versamark and clear embossed it -- to give it a shiny look, similar to what a cameo would look like. I then glued it to the gold image and cut it out using a Labels Ten die.




I like the look of sheet music on a card. I cut a small piece and sponged around the edges to give it a vintage look, sponging the back corners so that the rolled portion would look distressed too. I mounted the sentiment in the center after gluing down the corsage pin/ribbon.
