Black, White, and a Pop of Color


 Our new challenge over at Cut It Up is Black, White and a Pop of Color!  Well, I suppose you can't give this challenge to a trained musician and not expect them to see music!  Of course, it's all black and white and Newton gets to be the pop of color with his little coffee cup....because almost all musicians drink tons of coffee!  

I thought that line Newton is peeking over could easily be a line on the staff, so I went into Cricut DS and created a staff!  Then I found a Treble clef and printed it out.  

Next I colored Newton and his cup of coffee.  I didn't choose to use the cup in that stamp; I wanted to go with a striped cup to keep the line idea going.  So, I chose a different cup in the set!  I cut both stamps with the coordinating dies and adhered them in place.
