Man Oh Man Monday No. 15 | Birthday Card with Layers

Hello there!  Man Oh Man Monday comes to you a smidgen late this week...only 2 days.  Geez.  I won't go into detail, but we lost one of our beloved dogs.  Now that I am able to see through the trail of tears and have stopped wailing (slight exaggeration for dramatic effect), I wanted to share a birthday card I made back in the fall of last year for an uncle of mine.

Don't ask me too many questions on what I did and what I used because I am sort of fuzzy on both.  I do know I was going through a phase of using layers of die cuts and patterns.  The journaling cards are from Studio Calico as is most of the stamps.  I think the die cuts come from My Mind's Eye and possibly Studio Calico too.

The inside (I can't recall where the happy stamp comes from):

Note to self: when using a strip with stars actually use a strip with full stars.

That's it from me for the moment.  Enjoy your day!

Happy creating,
Shay.
