This is for Carla's Ways to Use It Challenge: Beautiful Music. Be inspired by classical music or your own favorite. I love jazz and lively swing & big band music.
I found this pre-stamped panel in my stash. To create the jazz ensemble, I first stamped & heat-embossed the saxophone in gold. Then I masked the sax and stamped the drums with a rainbow pad. Lastly, I masked the right side of the drums and stamped the guitar with Crumb Cake ink. I'd love to hear this group play a jazzed up version of Happy Birthday!
Today, I layered the panel on Brushed Gold and then on a Cucumber Crush card base. On the base, I stamped a long HB on which I doodled the dot over the letter �I� into a music note. On each side, I stamped a music note and used a black eyelet in the center. Fun challenge. Thanks Carla. Thank you for looking!

Love that image, Diane! Great colors, cool tones but so bold. Such a fun birthday card. Thanks for playing in my challenge and celebrating the beauty of music.

Great masking to fit all your instruments on a small stage. And I LOVE the eyelet in the note. I used to have some musical eyelets, but actually I think this is far nicer.

oh, this has me smiling as I spend a lovely weekend on Whidbey Island in the Puget Sound. My friend has 'Alexa', well, like 100 million other peeps too. She asked 'Alexa' for some smooth jazz.
Your card is smooth as all get out, Diane. I love it. And I believe I have that SU set...you've inspired me to dig it out...if only I had 'Alexa'.
