Rocking into May

Good morning, here in the UK we are enjoying the May Day bank holiday. After a busy weekend we plan a day of relaxing and I hope to have a few hours crafting too.  I hope your all have a lovely day and have some time to do whatever your heart desires.  As it is Monday I am here with my DT Make for Visible Image. Today I am revisiting their fab music stamps and used stamps from 4 of the sets to make an easel card. I used;

Rock out

                                                                    Sing

Feel the beat

and Jazz it up

I also used the Fibres stencil and made 2 rainbow backgrounds, one for the front and one for the inside panel, using distress inks.

On the front panel I stamped the drummer and guitarist in black Versafine ink

I also stamped some guitars onto inky mop up card and fussy cut them out.

On the inside panel I made a raised keyboard by stamping and cutting out a repeat of the keyboard stamp.

I also stamped, embossed and cut out the mike, adding a plait of Bakers's twine for the cable.

I then put everything together. I really enjoy making easel cards but they are so hard to photograph! 

Here goes;

a side view

a direct front view

and a collage showing everything together.

 The music stamps really do rock and they so suit vibrant backgrounds too.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges;

Sweet Stampin 2/3 spaced out/anything goes
Lil patch of crafting friends 2/3 anything goes
Inkspirational 2/3 adventure
Crafty calendar 2/3 distress it
