Loving this HQCB #43 Music World Choral Day with heart DT project for 28 Nov 2023

Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity blog!

Purpose: this posting showcases my owner/DT contribution to Heart's Quest challenge blog which has a few more occasion themes left for 2023; in 2024 we are going to try a different theme pairing format with 3 choices in part A (topic elements) and 3 choices in part B (heart/love)

When: HQCB #43 starts November 28 and will end on December 13, 2023

What: my music choice selection is the Christmas carol "Away In A Manger"


Notes:

1. deer stamp and pine branch stamp = 

2. Away in a Manger die-cut = Echo Park

3. die-cut was color-altered with "Condensed Milk" alcohol marker applied to the edges of the creche and the song title = Arteza Everblend Art Marker

4. song sheet first line cut from full sheet = received in a Christmas theme packet from "Not Just Stuff" Etsy shop of Lauren Bergold

5. lime green checked gingham = I think it's from Fancy Pants Designs

6. neon yellow/green cardstock cut to slimline 3.5" deep x 7.5" wide = Neenah

7. Tuxedo Black, Rich Cocoa, Pear Green, and yellow/orange ink pads= Memento

8. gold foil snowflakes and stars = Hot Off The Press

9. beige heart shape foam sticker = Frosted Forest collection by Fancy Pants Designs
