MUSIC OF THE PAST

I finally put together two layouts from my Piano Recital in 1970!  You can really see the era in the flower power dress I am wearing.  Mom insisted on going to the beauty shop and I came out with a beehive hair-do (not quite to my liking).  I am using the actual invitation and the program from the recital.  On the inside of the program it also included our scores from the New Jersey Federation of Music testing and the selections we played at the recital.  I copied those onto cream colored cardstock to resemble the program.

Here are my layouts:

    LEFT

    RIGHT

I am entering these layouts in 4 Crafty Chicks challenge #4CC183 Music, Red Carpet Studios challenge RCS#64 the Academy Awards and Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog #3 Vintage or Retro.  

I hope you enjoyed this blast from my past!  Thanks for stopping by.  All comments greatly appreciated.
