HQCB #43.5 Reminder Extra owner DT Inspiration for Music theme
Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity blog!
Purpose: this posting (#43.5) showcases another music theme with heart/love owner/DT inspiration project for Heart's Quest
When: Midway Reminder post on December 6, 2023; challenge ends December 13 for #43
What: Hark the Herald Angels Sing heart-shaped card=
I created my own template for the top edge folded heart-shaped card. The front panel is about 1/4" wider on most sides because I want it to tip back or rest more on the slightly shorter back panel.
Notes:
1. inside panel paper = Stampin' Up
2. inside panel sentiment= gold hologram foil dazzles/stickers from Hot Off The Press
3. base cardstock and background front panel cardstock = Neenah
4. music sheet = came from a Christmas theme "Just Enough Stuff" packet from Etsy
5. front panel cardstock and music were inked/distressed with a variety of alcohol markers, colored pencils and ink pads (Arteza, Nuvo, Memento and Hero Arts for some of the companies)
6. angel die-cut = from the Away In A Manger collection ephemera by Echo Park
7. gold stars and snowflakes = Hot Off The Press
