Quartet Competition

In an earlier post (wow, has it been so long already?!), I mentioned that one of the competing quartets asked me to make cards for them to give out to all the other quartets. After my initial hesitation (this is a HUGE undertaking) I started getting excited. Digging through my stamps took no time at all as I found this sentiment straight away and knew it was the one. Suddenly an image came to mind and all I had to do was choose colors.

Once the cards were completed I realized I had missed the opportunity for some finishing touches - sponged edges, that sort of thing... next time.

Card stock is all SU, as are the stamps. For that matter, so are the watercolor crayons and the ink for the sentiment. Only the ribbon is 'other'; a quick find at ACMoore.

Both of SONE's quartets did us proud and I was so happy and excited to be able to be there to cheer them on!



The day after quartet competition is chorus competition and I am proud to announce that the Region One Champion is my very own, Sound Of New England Chorus!!! Seattle, here we come!!
