Hi, guys! Hope all is well! Today I was asked to make a card by my husband for one of his oldest and dearest friends, Jeff. Jeff was just elected Chairman of the Board of the Long Island Music Hall of Fame. It is such an honor, and so we wanted to recognize it with what else? Yep, a card!
Supplies:
Stamps: Stampers Anonymous, 100 Proof Press
Ink: Archival, Versafine
Paper: Gina K Ivory, Core-dinations
Misc.: Cuttlebug Music Embossing Folder, Tim Holtz Exclamation Point, Clear Embossing Powder
Core-dinations Kraft paper is a great paper to use with your embossing folders. Using a sanding block and removing the color reveals the Kraft core underneath.
I decided to heat emboss a cool record image with clear embossing powder on the envelope. Isn't it a fun way to finish off a card?
Without art and music in our lives I believe our world would be a pretty cold place. Thank you to Jeff for all you do to keep music alive and well on Long Island.
Until next time!

Congrats to you & your husband.
Beautiful card for chairman of the board!
great job... i love how you sanded to get a kraft color!! i think i have to pick up some core-dinations!!
Such talent and patience!! I love your work! :)
AMEN! I have three daughters in a music school for voice and it's an art that the schools just don't get - they cut the budget left and right. Congratulations to your dh's friend - what an accomplishment!
LOVELY card, love the embossed work!

The paper you used is on my wishlist! What a beautiful card!
Fantastic card :) I love the embossing you have done. And yes, the world would be a sad place without music. x
What a great technique you have used and it turned out great!
Awesome card -- love the kraft core peeking through!
You inspire me. One of these days I just may have to move from digital art to "real" stuff!
Goregous! I love the colour scheme. The embossing is a great touch. And you're so right about the importance of music. It's been my salvation at times.
