This is for my neighbour's Mum to give to her husband for his 80th birthday.
I was told his interests are....cricket, rugby and brass bands....I haven't got a decent cricket image and have recently done a rugby card, so I googled musical instruments and images and found a flugelhorn which is the instrument he plays. The old photo is of a local band.
Edit: He Loved it!
Did you think it was a trumpet??? I couldn't tell the difference but I am assured he will. There are two layers and have to say what a 'fiddle' (ooops , sorry) they were to cut out.
The bottom paper is the same as the top but my rubbishy photography makes it look a different colour.

That is a lovely card Irene, and I don´t think it matters if we cant tell the difference between a trumpet and a flugelhorn.´HE will and that´s what makes the card so special. Yhanks you for sharing it. Jackie xx
