Can You Name That Tune?

Hello Crafty Friends,

 Today was my first day of summer break. Although it has been raining almost all day I still enjoyed it. I changed my blog background, went to lunch with my hubby, picked up some new liquid pearls, and made a card for my father-in-law's birthday which isn't until July 2nd. I think my F-I-L will like this card since he loves music from the past.
Did You Know...
Name That Tune was a television game show that put two contestants against each other to test their knowledge of songs. Name That Tune premiered in the United States on NBC Radio in 1952. Name That Tune then ran from 1953–1959 on NBC and CBS in prime time.
Be sure to dress your buttons...never leave them naked. I use craft thread, embroidery floss, or twine to decorate them.

The title was printed on the computer using Word. First, I printed the title on a piece of copy paper, then I taped the small white piece of paper from the jukebox cut that I wanted the sentiment on top of that. Finally, I reprinted the title and adhered to the die-cut on the card.

The jukebox is attached with pop dots to add dimension.

The inside provides an answer.
Here is one more look!

Materials:
Making Memories paper
silver card stock
Nifty Fifties Cricut cartridge ~ jukebox (p. 56) cut at 4" and music notes
Birthday Bash Cricut cartridge ~ inside sentiment (p. 69) cut at 4"
black and yellow buttons
black and yellow craft thread

Challenges:

Hope you have a great night. Graduation is tomorrow morning!
Stay Creative,
Georgiana

  7. Wow G! I LOVE that card! It looks wonderful with the bright colors and silver trim. Your FIL should love it. I wonder if there was a later version of Name That Tune on TV. I know I wasn't watching it from 53-59, but I certainly seem to remember such a game show. Your new blog background looks very summery! Nice!--Pat
