As I started to make this I kept thinking of more challenges that this card would fit into. I used a copy of some sheet music for the bg (WT510)..the original would be too fragile to emboss. The bg was embossed then rubbed with distress inks. I added some leaves along the edge by stenciling modeling paste mixed with 3D paint. The flowers were stamped on watercolor paper and them painted using Red Lead artisan inks. My sentiment is a combo of different styles (MIX107). I have at least 3 elements on my card and more than 3 different inks (F4A260). Lastly my inspiration piece was this red flower . It was fun to make..thanks for taking a look

...sure it’s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

This is a winner, Polly. I love everything about it and could not pin it and fav it fast enough. The bright red flowers are gorgeous. The tag and ribbon are the perfect touch, and I love the music bg. Fantastic card.
