Musical Birthday....

No.1 son was 22 last Saturday (jeez louise!! Where does the time go?!) and I made him a very simple but effective card. I downloaded a music themed word art panel from Papercraft Inspirations magazine website for the background. It printed in gold and brown (should have been black but I think my black ink is getting low!) so I used those colours for the rest of the card. I covered an A5 card with gold mirri topped with a piece of circle print paper (looks a little like CDs), then added the word art which was matted onto more gold mirri using foam tape. I cut a guitarist from brown glittercard and adhered it to the word art with foam pads. The birthday sentiment was computer-generated onto white textured cardstock with a gold mirri '22' added, cut to shape by hand, then matted onto more gold mirri. As a finishing touch I added some gold gems to the Z on the word 'JAZZ', just visible behind the guitarist.
