Guitar card
Thanks to Melinda Ford who posted a svg file a while back for a guitar viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5084&p=24287&hilit=guitar#p24287
My nephew is learning guitar and it is his birthday soon. I took the svg file of Melinda's and added some layers to it in Inkscape and then cut them out using SCAL2 and the new layers feature.I cut it using 12 x 24 card which I had and it has made an awesome card.
My husband had some light aluminium rod which we moulded around the inside of the card to strengthen it and then I covered that with another cut of the card. The "card" part itself is just of the body of the guitar, not the neck part. And then finally I found some old cottons of my grandmothers which were silver and they made the strings.
I am really thrilled with this and that it stands on its own too. My nephew will be able to put it on a shelf or hang it on his wall.
and here are a couple of it closer up
