Altered CD Joy's Life Case with My Little Shoebox Keepsake

This week Joy asked us to alter these adorable CD cases. I was nervous at first, but then I found that the Keepsake collection has some music notes in it. Everything just came together after that. 

I used this adorable sentiment stamp from the Tag You're It TWO collection. The music notes in the paper and stickers, the CD case itself and the stamp just all work so well together to reinforce the theme. 

Of course I had to add some sewing. and of course I had to sew the paper before adhering it to the cd case. That's a trick of mine to make the back sides of cards look good, or to be able to add stitching to ANYTHING - just sew the paper first. So what if you aren't sewing something TO something else?

On a side note, don't you love the bright fun colors of this collection? I think it just might be my current fave!
