Day 20: Sing glory

Every year my church holds a special carol service at which a choir performs several pieces, there are readings, a short talk, and carols for everyone. We moved to this area in December a few years ago, I went to the service and loved it, and have been a part of the choir ever year since. There are 6-7 weekly rehearsals in the run-up to the service, and we tackle some wonderful pieces of music :-) This year we did Jesus Child by John Rutter (at only a fraction below full speed!) and Glory To God from Handel's Messiah, along with several other lovely songs.

For this, I went for a double layout of 6x6 pages. The background is My Mind's Eye paper and I ran a strip of Sonburn Designs ribbon right across both pages. The title (Doodlebug Design alphas) also spans both pages. On the left hand side I tucked a photo of the John Rutter music under the ribbon and added an Elle's Studio number; on the right, I've included the CD the choir members are provided with so we can practise at home. It has the full version of each piece and then the individual parts. I trimmed some Love Elsie paper to cover the CD and added the titles of the pieces of music with peel-off letters. I used a little CD mount I salvaged from a broken case and used that to attach the disc to the page - it's still removable and playable, should I wish to play it!

I may add a little something to that empty space in the middle of the double page, but I'm holding back and considering that a bit first. Ideas and suggestions welcomed :-)
