Path of Positivity #53 - Surround Yourself With Music

A new challenge starts today at Path of Positivity and this month the theme is Music. I have two daughters who love to dance, the eldest has fairly recently resumed lessons in tap and has just started Irish dance lessons as well. She has also taken a couple of grades and done very well. The youngest dances for fun and exercise, usually at home. When they were little they both went to ballet lessons but neither have kept this going. Our house was always full of dance music of all sorts especially when they had exams or shows coming up. Now they both fill the house with music when they visit, Becky to show off her latest routine and Rachel exercising. So when it came to picking an image from Imagine That Digistamp, one of our sponsors this month, I could not resist this little tap dancer.

I should point out that Becky, our tapping queen is also a veterinarian nurse, hence the quote!

Materials used:Imagine That Digistamp - Tap Dancer
acrylic music stamp
black archival ink pad
gold embossed paper
A4 printer card
X-Press It card
Copic pens


I have tried to colour in the image as if the dancer is in the spotlight. The mat is an embossed gold paper.

The quote is printed on the A4 card which has then been folded to make an A5 card blank. The music is stamped on using black ink than the matted topper added.

In a couple of weeks time Becky is taking part in a Tapathon on Sunday 19th November, a national event to attempt to break the record for the most people doing the same tap routine at the same time and to raise money for Children in Need. There are places hosting it up and down the country, her dance school is one of them. However we will all be away at a wedding celebration that day so she has booked in at a venue near to where the celebration is so she can still take part. That's dedication!

If you are interested to see this is this year's routine click Here.

So why not be inspired by the music you enjoy, make a project and share it with us at Path of Positivity, we would love to see your creations. Or you can just enter as an Anything Goes and leave out the optional theme.
