US188 - Happy Birthday to the Music Teacher




 I'm so excited to have been chosen as one of the Top 3 at last week's Unscripted Sketches, for this card.  It was my first time playing and I really love how everyone interpreted the sketch differently, to make it their own.

For this week's sketch:


I turned the sketch on its side and went with an idea that's been in my head for a while. I love to make music cards for musical people and this will be perfect for Kate's piano/vocal teacher (once I find out when her birthday is!). I used the candle from Paper Smooches Hey Sugar set and drew the lines with a ruler. The sentiment is from Hero Arts.

  1. Another brilliant idea! Bithday candles and piano keys...makes perfect sense...once it is on paper.

    Without actually seeing it executed so perfectly, I likely would have said WHAT??? You amaze me!

    The font of the sentiment is perfect for this card - it seems to mimic the candles

  7. WHAAAAT?!? Out of this world creative, you are, Ardyth!! Someone should have had a challenge with the theme "use candles for a music-themed card" and you would have been the only entry because no one else would have thought of anything. Beyond amazing.

    Oh, and I hope you do get a chance to play around with the ornaments. I would LOVE to see what you come up with! Warning: they are addictive. You just keep making them.

  8. Congratulations on the Top 3 honor, Ardy! If you ask me you get the TOP honor for this week's card!! Honestly, I don't even know what to say. You should publish your own magazine of just your cards.

  9. Love it! In my brain you had turned a piano into candles so I delighted you explained it and the results would be lovely for anyone musically inclined.

  13. Love, love, love it. Too bad you can't use this for the handbell cards. I hope you came up with something because I have no clue with stamps.
