Piano Lessons-PDCC03



Just a quick post today, nothing fancy, This was the card I made for my Mom's 78th Birthday which was 3 weeks ago, just haven't had the chance to upload it, It is from the Saturday Evening Post series and so reminded me of all the piano lessons my parents endured over the many years of practicing that I had to purchase the image and make her a card. The image was much much bigger than I thought it would be so not much embelishing. Now to do Dad's card who's 85th Birthday is Sunday. Sandi thanks for letting me know about this challenge..

Thanks for looking
Debbie

What a wonderful card, Debbie! I love that stamp, just haven't gotten it yet, but I'm sure I will! Love what you've done with it! Sounds like we had similar childhoods--lots of piano lessons and practicing! Didn't love it always at the time, but I'm sure grateful now, which I remember every time my girls whine at me about practicing!

Oh I love this card! This really reminds me of when I was taking piano lessons as a child and then going to piano recitals. It was fun but nerve wracking.
I love the colors you used!
