Love how your Dad used to play you to sleep, what wonderful memories to cherish! Love the card and cookie tin you made! Very creative and so beautiful done!
Oh Karen, this is fabulous!!! Love that you made the card so personal! And using a picture of him is just so sweet!! Wish my dad was still here. Love that can too!!
Oh so beautiful and very creative Karen! Love the vintage image of your dad. And I admit I'm a bit jealous. It must have been pure magic growing up in household filled with musical memories. Love that added his favorite cookies for him. I'm sure he loved this!
What a cool gift for your dad! Love the card and the can! I always wanted to learn to play piano but never got the opportunity. I did learn to play the guitar at 15, and played the violin from 4th-9th grade. When I got to high school they didn't have enough violins to go around so I had to switch to viola which I liked even better. Then I joined the band and learned to play the bells and percussion instruments including tenor, bass and snare drums! Quite a difference from violin huh?! :-) My oldest son took clarinet, then saxophone in band and also plays guitar. My youngest son started out on trombone, then advanced to bass trombone, baritone, tuba, sousaphone and string bass and also played electric and bass guitars in high school. So proud of both of them!
The photo is of my father. He is an outstanding musician; and still today plays in several groups/bands (He can play 7 dif. musical instruments) His most loved is the piano. I can't remember growing up w/o a baby grand in the living room. Dad would often 'play us to sleep' at night with the classics~ The 'tag' swings freely. The 'machine' in the center of the card is a metronome? I think they call it - it keeps tempo and time. There is always one on his piano. Dad likes my choc chip & cranberry cookies; so I recycled a sm. coffee can and added some cookies~ Thanks for taking time to look today!~Karen
