Yes, Virginia.....I'm Inspired.......

My friend Virginia is having a fun challenge over on her blog "Yes, Virginia".  Her daughter Stephanie recently took some fun pictures of her brother David and his cello choir and Virginia shared them with us and challenged us to make a card based on them.  Here are the photos:


And here 's the card I made:


supplies: white and green cardstock, Hero Arts LP140 Just a Note Bird, CL341 Thank You Sayings, barn door, spiced marmalade, peacock feathers distress inks, and Hero Arts grass chalk ink and Adirondack denim ink, DeNami Designs note stamp, VersaFind onyx black ink

Sorry to the grey cello - I couldn't fit in another bird!

Also entering this into the Simon Says Stamp challenge "Anything Goes".
