This week's destination for the tea partiers is Tom in Greeley, Colorado - a 62 y.o. mentally challenged man with Down's Syndrome. Tom loves to get mail and he loves guitars and cars, so this card is highlighting one of his loves. The music BG has a very muted, distressed appearance, so I went with distressing and sponging the edges. The sentiment and image was embossed with copper EP. Some twill tape tabs and punched stars with bling finish it off. The layout is a sketch by Karen Giron for the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.

Thank you so much for taking time to make a card for Tom.He loves pretending he is a rock star with the guitar Erik gave him so your card is perfect! I really like the colors you chose as well as your layout.
