Just A Note or Two!

 
 
Greetings and Happy New Year to each of you!  This is my first scheduled post for 2015.  We are up to Challenge #73 over at Inkspirational and for this time around, we have a Word Prompt Challenge:  Note!  The challenge is wide open to your interpretation of the word "note!"  I hope you will pop on over to Inkspirational to see what our Guest Designer and the rest of the Design Team have cooked up for you and then share a creation of your own with us. 
 
For my own card, I began by cutting white card into an 8"x8" card.  On the card front, I tore up some scraps of Tim Hotlz Christmas Paper that happened to have notes on them and were laying on my work surface from another project I am working on and mounted them to the card from with Gel Medium.  I added several washi tapes next.  The little musical notes are from Sugarloaf and were stamped with Black Archival Ink.  The focal image entitled "Music Wanted" is by a company called Art Declassified, which is no longer around. I added Fired Brick Distress Spray Stain to the card front before adding the matted focal image.  The sentiment was created with alpha stamps by G Studio.  A black and white baker's twine bow completes my card.
 
Thanks for dropping by today.  Hugs, Yvonne

I love the look of your ripped paper and washi tape- so hard to do well in my opinion (I've tried!) and you do it very well. Perfect with the lovely image.

Such wonderful way of using colours and notes on your card. Love the sentiment!

I really like this collage look and with all the little nods to our word prompt. The colours all match somwell with your vintage image x

Once again, Yvonne, you have a most unique, inventive take on the inspiration prompt. Your 'music wanted' image, paired with the music notes, washi tapes and ripped papers is nothing short of striking! I'm crushing over this...Thank you for your warm, compassionate comments of late, which are appreciated so deeply. You are a gem!
Hugs~c

Love the torn bits of paper and washi tape on this card, I like how it adds interest to this design, and also they fit the theme perfectly. Great job, Yvonne! And wishing you a happy new year!
