Less is More Week 46

Afternoon all, running a bit late this week, in fact I nearly forgot to do a card for Chrissie and Mandi! Eeeeek!!
Well it's nice to make a card other than a Christmas one:) It's theme week and it's MUSIC

                                    

Well here is what I made and I hope you like it. Actually there's two, can you spot the difference:)
Not sure which I prefer but both will come in handy for birthdays coming up.




I used a pearl base card and scored two lines vertically and stamped with black Memento ink a set of stamps from Stamp Addicts vintage range. I added some black peeloffs along the scored lines and to accentuate the black piano keys, it was less messy than EP! The sentiment is an old CD one.
It is my husband, Jim's, birthday today and I made two cards, one from me and one  for Dominic to give him. They show the different aspects of Jim's character!! He's been doing lots of decorating lately.  Apologies for the poor photo quality but I only thought to film them late this afternoon when they were on the mantlepiece!!! Merry Christmas to all my blogging friends and followers xx
