Just A Note To Say

Hello there.  Taking a brief break from Christmas cards today to share a super easy thank you card that was commissioned for a piano teacher.

*affiliate links used in this post when possible at no extra cost to you*

The piano keys were created with strips of paper trimmed from black and white scraps.  The alcohol ink background is Inked Oasis pattern paper from Pink and Main.  


The Musical Notes (retired My Favorite Things) were die cut from black cardstock.  The sentiment (retired Poppy Stamps) was white heat embossed onto black cardstock.  Added the three dots with a white gel pen and stamped “thank you” on the inside (forgot to take a photo of it).  Assembled the card onto a split black/white card base to finish. 


And that is all for this card!  Thank you for stopping by.

As a musician, I love this card, Trina. The alcohol ink paper give just the right amount of color. Hand cutting the keyboard pieces was worth the time and effort. tfs
