Quick post from me, must help with the dinner if we want to eat at a decent time tonight!
A card for you based on the current challenge at Less Is More, which is to use their wonderful sketch and make a landscape card too. And as I’m using up snippets, I’m just sneaking into The Snippet Playground almost after everyone else has gone home! I wonder if Di will even notice me!!!
Having a bit of trouble with the contrast for some reason, the card is redder than this IRL. Anyway, simple rectangular card made from half of an A4 sheet, stamped with a Stampendous music stamp in Versamark Pink Petunia, after first masking off the white section. The little dots were made with my Scorebug and my Scorpal. The butterflies are the offcuts from a Memory Box border die and I generated the sentiment on the computer and cut it out with a Nesties Label No9 and added a few little pearls.
I’ll try and get a better set of pictures tomorrow, these are just not looking good!

This is an interesting take on the sketch… which looks great.
I love cards with manuscript on them, but in fact you have the music upside down. The key to getting your particular stamp the right way up is to look at the tiny words… albeit that they are in Italian and abbreviated, but you can just about see them if you look really closely.(I hope this helps)
Thanks so much for joining us.

Hi Brenda – ha, ha, you scampered in at the last minute. I thought it had been a bit quieter in here this week 🙂 Love your card and those diddy little butterflies are a beautiful finishing touch. Di xx (standing on head doing me yoga this morning so the music is just fine) Off to add this to the roll call and then I can press publish! xx

Terrific. I’d never have known about the manuscript being upside down if Chrissie hadn’t said! Any fool can put it the RIGHT way up! LOL! xxx

A woman after my own heart using all your snippets. I recently sorted mine out and intent to show and tell on my blog (when I get round to it)… I’m trying not to print any more papers off and use what I already have.
Your card is lovely and so fresh and feminine – well done on doing it all out of scraps although you would never know!
