WT155: Amazing Grace

February 28th, 2008

I know! I’m on Elvis over-load, but this was too perfect for the Ways to Use It challenge (in my opinion). The idea was to integrate some type of musical element to your project.

No other recording artist EVER has been able bridge the gap between pop-culture icon and gospel music’s golden child like Elvis. Despite his party life-style and early demise, his hymn recordings are some of the most treasured in the world. 

  • Stamps: Elvis Portrait, Rummage Bin - assorted sets and Aimee Nugent’s Easter Cross - all from Cornish Heritage Farms; Amazing Grace - Morningstar Stamps

  • Cardstock: Suede Dark Brown and Cryogen White

  • Ink: Espresso, Latte and Pesto Adirondack

  • Accs: sewing machine & Copic Markers

I really do have other things to take care of today… ;) I’ll see you tomorrow morning with Beate’s sketch for the weekend! Have a wonderful day!
