2-page Piano Layout with Hannah Montana and A Child's Year Cricut Cartridges

I created this 2-page scrapbook layout in 30 minutes or so. Here are the tools I used:
  • 2 sheets pink and white polka dot paper, 12 X 12 inches
  • 1 sheet pastel pink card stock, 6 X 12 inches
  • 1 sheet black card stock, 12 X 12 inches
  • 1 sheet black and white striped paper, 12 inches long, 2 strips, .5 inch wide
  • Hannah Montana Cricut cartridge, Music Font for "Piano" written on music staff
  • Hannah Montana Cricut cartridge for treble clef, bottom right of layout
  • A Child's Year Cricut cartridge for grand piano
  • Scotch ATG (for attaching larger pieces)
  • Zig 2-way glue pen (for music staff, treble clef, and grand piano)
Notes: The music font feature on the Hannah Montana cartridge is very easy to use, and the letters are welded together on a single staff as long as you are sure to start and end with the bar lines shown here:

The grand piano icon on A Child's Year cartridge is great. I like it better than the grand piano on the Quarter Note cartridge, because the lid is open, and I don't particularly want the swirly embellishments that come on most of the images in Quarter Note.
