Paper Smooches Guest Designer Search #1

Here is a card I am entering in the Paper Smooches guest designer search. I used the jukebox, music notes, and sentiment from Perpetual Bliss and the mouth and arms are from Wake Up. I thought the little black circles on the jukebox looked like eyes, so the arms and mouth are a perfect addition! This is a pretty simple card. I distressed the edges of the cardstock and added a bit of bling to the top of the jukebox. The image is colored with copic markers.

I also made a red version:


This little jukebox reminds me that as a kid, my family would sometimes go to the local Pizza Hut on the weekends to eat. My parents would always let me and my brother pick some songs from the jukebox to listen to during our meal. We would stand up there forever flipping through the titles trying to decide what to play. A very simple thing, but a very good memory, too.

Erika - Congratulations on the Paper Smooches guest designer spot! Even though I'm secretly hating you right now (LOL. JK!), I gotta admit that your cards are super cute! You really have a knack for piecing together some great little characters! Right now i only have one PS set and its a sentiment set. So i really had to challenge myself to be able to come up with the cards I submitted. Thank goodness for their free digis! But i joined the club so i can't wait to see what March's release will be. Anyway, great job and i cant wait to see what u design!
