Hello, and welcome to the June/July Words 2 Craft By Challenge! This month's word challenge is "go where you feel most alive." I absolutely love music. I literally have music playing almost my entire day when I'm not at work. I run to music, shower to it, clean and craft to it, even cook and dress in the morning to music. It's a huge part of my life. So, I felt like I had to incorporate a musical note into my card this month. To start I layered some beautiful patterned papers from G.C.D Studios Splendor 8x8 paper pad onto my white card base. I die cut a pierced edge oval using paper from the same paper pad and a My Favorite Things die and adhered it straight down to the card. I stamped the Victrola image from the Unity Stamp Company Better With Age KOTM onto some Copic-friendly cardstock and colored it using my alcohol markers. I fussy cut the image and popped it up off of the card using some foam squares from Scrapbook Adhesives. I stamped the sentiment from the Skipping Stones Designs Heartsong II stamp set onto more white cardstock using Versafine onyx black ink and used a 1" circle punch from Stampin' UP to punch it out and adhered it to the card using more foam squares. A few black sequins from Pretty Pink Posh finish off my card. I can't wait to see how our challenge inspires you this month!

Great card, Celeste. Like you, I too have music playing all day...after all I have been a professional muso most of my working life.

Celeste, What a wonderful interpretation of this month's W2CB Challenge... and I have to say I'm more than a bit envious. I so wish music played a bigger part in my life but, sadly, the musicality gene seems to have skipped me. Regardless, I just love your card and its nifty vintage feel. :)
I like the pretty little butterflies fluttering out of the Victrola. This is lovely Celeste!
Yes!! Love your interpretation! A happy place doesn't have to be a place - it can be a state of mind!
