HiHo, blogging friends.
Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend.
My brother's birthday is coming up and he's a huge music buff and performer at his church. He sings and plays the piano. So, I thought he would like this, especially since he's always been a Beatles fan and the sentiment is a lyric from one of their songs. I used a warm and cool 2-color combo of red and blue as that's how the precolored gnome image is colored, perfect for a guy card, I think. Since he's in his fifties, he'll feel at home with the vinyl and the cassette tapes.

I used this Splitcoaststamper sketch for my A7 layout design.
I used this adorable pre-colored Polkadoodles Music Record Collector Gnome along with some Polkadoodles Gnome Men Musical digital paper. I sized them in PSE and printed out on HP Satin Professional Photo Paper. The other papers are SU card stocks. The piano keys is Washi tape. The red notes were cut with a Quickutz die and the Gnome image was cut out using a Spellbinder postage die. The Impression Obsession sentiment was stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with white powder, then cut out with a Lawn Fawn banner die.
I created the sentiment and layered it onto the Polkadoodles digital paper, then printed out on HP Premium Satin photo paper.
Hoping it gives my brother a smile.
Final view.
Thanks for the visit!

I love warm and cool color combos like blue and red that I've used, because often the warm color *pops* and brightens the cool color as well. 😎

Is that piano tape? I love it. Mr. Gnome is adorable as is how you used him. Loving the turquoise too. Someone is going to really going to have their heart skip a beat with this card. Have a super rest of your weekend. hugs-Erika
Great card Aimeslee. Sadly - though I used to listen to the Beatles I don't remember this song in particular. So I visited YouTube to catch up. My favourite back then was 'I want to hold your hand'. We used to dance to that at the hops when I was in my late teens but we used to shout 'your foot' instead of 'your hand'. Daft memories.
