X is for Xmas Music at ABC Christmas Challenge & the Mod Squad

I recently found the ABC Christmas Challenge site and

loved the idea of using the alphabet to make your

Christmas cards throughout the year.

I certainly will be trying to do this for all of 2015.

***

Since we are coming to an end of the year

the challenge this time round is

X for Xmas Music.

I love adding music to cards and have done

quite a bit this year as Hubby is a Guitar Freak

and turned 70 so the invites had Music on them -

and of course his cards did too.

Back to the card above -

It was a simple card to make especially as we need

our cards to be that way when we have family and friends

who love receiving a hand made one.

I used red, kraft and brown card stock

 The music is from a sheet from hubby's book

Spellbinders Poinsettia Die - how could I not use this

as it is my favourite for Christmas. I cut a few extras to add

more depth and sprayed them with

SU Champagne Mist and

PearEX Aztec Gold for the shimmer and popped

Tim Holtz Antique Linen

Marvy Timeless Sepia Ink

Cuttlebug Embossing folder from a Magazine

Cuttlebug & MS Leaf Die embossed with

the ever popular Swiss Dots

Finished off with a few Kaisercraft pearls.

I would also like to enter this card in the

Mod Squad Challenge for their

The Music of Christmas Challenge.

Also entering this in the

As You Like It Challenge

and I chose Traditional for this one because for me

The red poinsettia plays a big part in

Christmas Decorations. 



but hoping to add a Modern one as well.

Thanks for stopping by
