Peace on Earth Card - Try Stamping on Tuesday Challenge

I decided to enter a new challenge this week - it is called Try Stamping on Tuesday. They provide sketches and I LOVE sketches so I decided to give it a go. 
It's another of those non-traditional coloured Christmas cards. Since I am a sucker for music, being a musician myself, I wanted to incorporate music notes into my card as I have a lot of musical friends so I used that as my background. This site also requires that you stamp on your cards and Close To My Heart is all about stamping so what better way to incorporate the two? I also wanted to use my Christmas tree die cut that I just adore. 
The sentiment is difficult to read as it is small as I embossed it with Clear Detail Embossing Powder and Glitter - it says Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men. 
So, here is the finished product. The sketch is shown below the card. 


Enjoy, 
Alyson

I too love the music notes! They just have to go with Christmas I think. Thank you for playing with us at TSOT!
