I have a son who is a musician and so when his birthday rolls around I like to make something a bit special and with a music theme. I've played around before with the idea of using acetate as a card base and this is what I've done here. There is a panel for writing on at the back of the card. I like the way that the front of the card seems to float over the background when it's folded. It was difficult to photograph the card sitting open as it reflected background things like a mirror from many angles! The inspiration from this card come from the sketch at Stamp, Ink, Paper and the photo inspiration at Addicted to Stamps and More, where I was struck by the bold black and white against gold and the stripes, which were a bit like lines of music from distance. Update: Delighted to be a Top Pick at Stamp, Ink, Paper this week. Further Update: Delighted to be an Honourable Addict at Addicted to Stamps and More.
