Happy Birthday To You

I first saw this lovely Lawn Fawn die on Di's blog and then saw it again on Sarn's blog so decided to buy it as I thought it would be perfect for so many cards, especially male cards where I often lack inspiration.  I made this card is for my uncle's birthday.

To make this card I used:
    6" x 6" cream hammer card blank
     Lawn Fawn 'Giant Happy Birthday to You' die
     Snippets of cream hammer card, brown card and Lili of the Valley 'Galaxy Stars' paper

I trimmed a snippet of green star paper, layered it onto brown card and attached it to the card blank.  I die cut the sentiment from both brown card and cream textured card.  I used Artist Tac to attach the brown sentiment onto the cream one, offsetting it so it created a shadow before attaching it to the centre of the card.

I am entering the following challenges:
     Happy Little Stampers Birthday Challenge - Anything Goes
     Love to Scrap - Anything Goes
     NBUS - Challenge 48 (my new Lawn Fawn die)
     Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes
