Musical Musings

My original intention for this week's Jingle Belles Prompt (Hark the Herald Angels SING) was to use this week's Sunday Stamps Sketch and some musical papers.  

When I was finished, I decided to use the leftovers to make two more cards ... and I ended-up loving one of them more than the original.

Here is my favorite, using a combination of papers and elements from Kaiser Kraft Frosted Collection.

I finished with some vintage stamps from the National Wildlife Federation that I found while searching for some holiday sentiment stickers that are still lost somewhere in my stash ... so much of my creativity is serendipitous.

Here is the original card for this week's Sunday Stamps Sketch (I think part of why it wasn't my favorite is because it didn't photograph well ... those holographic snowflakes always look a weird shade of pink in photographs, no matter how I light them).

I die cut the musical tag using CUTplorations Nested Luggage Tags and the sentiment is STAMPlorations Holiday Sketches.  I used the sketch layout from the Sunday Stamps Challenge.

I ended-up having enough paper scraps to make a third card.

What cool papers - you really used them so skillfully! I'm not sure I could have tamed them, but your designs are perfect! Lovely extra details! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
