Use a die-cut

A friend at my choir asked me to make a card for another friend who had been the secretary of our choir for several years before moving away from the area. Naturally she wanted to have a card with a musical theme.
I began by choosing the small manuscript stamp and then decided to use a musical font for part of the sentiment. Her name is written using Amadeus with Andalus for the printing and Passions Conflict for the script.
As the challenge at My Time to Craft this week is to use a die cut, I thought that these two dies from Marianne's Creatables fitted the bill. The butterfly has been embossed and twinkled with Glamour Dust and embellished with a few gems. The paper is Harlequin from Pink Petticoat.
Have a good day!

    What a great mix of elements - I especially like the leaves and butterfly against the musical background. You must have quite a few musical ideas up your sleeve! Vx
