Piano Man Layout

Hi Everyone,
Well today will be a very very long day. I’m dropping Ethan off at school and then heading to work for 8am. I’ll probably be spending the whole day helping get everything set for the fundraiser tonight that starts at 5pm. Hopefully I get a minute to run home and freshen up before the party begins.

Tomorrow we are heading to the cottage to start painting and getting the place opened for the summer. I’m hoping between my brother-in-law and myself we can get the place painted in one day. I’ve got my fingers crossed…I’d love to have two whole days with nothing to do…except laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping…Oh now why did I go and starting thinking about that…

Anyway, yesterday I had the afternoon to play and worked on a layout of Ethan. He started taking piano lessons about two summers ago and we decided that after a years worth of lessons it was time to get rid of the keyboard that he was practicing on and get him a real piano. My favorite picture is of him leaning on the door watching the guys unload it…He was so excited and he plays the piano beautifully.

Here is the layout and a few pictures. I can’t believe how much Ethan has grown even from last year.

Piano man is cut from the Alphalicous Cricut Cartridge..I cut it in two layers at the same size and just off centered the letters so the black card stock would show under the orange card stock. 

 For the most part the layout is done with October Afternoon pattern paper. The music note paper is from Thrift Shop and the orange and white polka dots are from 5 & Dime…I also used a cream card stock for the base of the layout and a green for some accent.

I have to tell you I’ve been singing Piano Man (Billy Joel) for the past two days. For those of you that have heard me sing…well, as my dad always says “Sing by the door, we’ll help you out”…
I’m really behind on my email….I hope to get caught up this weekend…
I hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. 
Hugs and happy crafting.
