Music BEM celebration card

A local town personality has been granted a well deserved BEM in the New Years Honours list.

I have been asked to make a card to celebrate this very special occasion.



As the British Empire Medal has been awarded for services to music ... It was an obvious choice to go for a musical inspired theme.



I used a music sheet printed tissue for the background and hand cut the basic piano shape.
I hand,add the musical note using grunge board which was then embossed in black to give some dimension.

A black and white simple style was used to co-ordinate the sentiments.

The inside also has a musical inspired insert.



I also made co-ordinating boxes as the cards were quite high and deep and would have been damaged if posted.

The whole card was kept quite plain and the card was for a gentleman musical conductor.
