If music be the food of love. play on

This week is a one layer challenge at Less is More, and the theme is Music. Meanwhile at CAS-ual Fridays, the theme is Love Songs.

Here is my take on both challenges: I stamped and embossed the piano keyboard, to make the "sharps and flats" keys (I'm  sure they have a proper name) shiny, then masked it and used the negative left over from a die cut heart as a stencil to sponge in the read heart, finally stamping the message on to the heart.


Oh, and I made a discovery - do you remember the square plastic "sticky dots eraser" that used to come with packs of sticky dots from QVC? Well it is GREAT for removing unwanted ink smudges from cards. Useful to know when you're making a one layer card and can't stick something over your bloopers!

I'm submitting this to:

Fab card, love the colour combo too.
(I knew about the eraser - careful though on some card it makes it worse!)
