Musical Best Wishes

Here's another farewell/best wishes card I made.  This was for a co-worker who sings in a folk band who likes vintage stuff.

I don't normally do distressed cards, but I thought it would be appropriate for her, so I embossed the musical notation and then sanded the edges so they'd be a little torn up.  The microphone was cut in 3 pieces on my silhouette, with the solid band around the microphone glossy accented, so it would stand out.  I used a graphing paper backing stamp which I heat embossed for the microphone itself.

Best wishes was stamped in white ink on black paper, with a little white ink used on the label for contrast.  I kept the card black and white to make it look a bit classy, despite the distressing.
