It’s time for the August 2024 Karen Burniston Design Team Challenge with the theme of LET THE MUSIC PLAY.

While normally I would choose to make an uplifting card for the monthly challenge, I needed a sympathy card for an organist who had recently passed.
The cardbase is made from a 7 1/4 x 8 1/2-inch rectangle of patterned cardstock folded in half to make a top-fold 3 5/8 x 8 1/2-inch slimline card. The inside is covered with strips that are 2 5/8 x 8 1/2-inches.
For the pop-up bar inside, I used a 4 3/4 x 8 1/2 – inch piece of patterned paper that was scored and folded at 1 1/8, 2 1/4, 3 3/8. And 4 1/2 inches.

Such a elegant and beautiful card! The music themed patterned papers you chose to use are so pretty and a perfect match for your card. But what I love most is that you spanned your keyboard the entire length of the card, and how you very cleverly added the second upper tier keyboard to create an organ. Thank you for sharing!

Hi Sue. Your card is very unique and beautiful card. I enjoyed you adding in a video to show how to make it. Even in a sad moment the love ones will see the love and caring you put into making it.
