I made three cards for today. The links to the other cards you can find below in the DT-list.
For my third card I combined the new Background Bulders Classics with the previously released stamp set "Life is a song".
I added two lines of notes - both with the same song. To affirm the sentence "Life is better with music" I added red rhinestones as notes to the musically (or rhythmic) curved lines.
The notes are from the French folk or children's song "Alouette, gentille alouette".
My husband whistled and sang this song for our kids for many years and now Stella, my daughter (9), learned to play it on her double bass.
I like it, cause the melody is very lighthearted (although the text is hard for the lark (= alouette in French), cause it will be plucked).
I thought it gives some extra interest to the card to use the bass clef instead of the "usual" treble clef, so I copied the notes out of one of her bass-songbooks.
I have to say a double "Thank you" to my husband!
- He teached me (and the rst of the family) this song years ago.
- When he saw the stamp set, he immediatelly saw the stave there and so he inspired me to create this card.

I must agree with you about the thin stripe stamp as it reminded me of a stave when I saw it but you took the baton and ran, fab card. :)
