Birthday card featuring mushrooms, a fun greeting and a collage background

I made this card for one of my grandsons who loves his cat and likes words that sound a bit edgy - like shiitake!!  The mushroom & cat  (Kisspng/Cleanpng) were colour printed and trimmed out of the large sheet.  I ran my pattern tracing wheel on all four sides.  I layered it onto kraft cardstock which has border a punched border and an embossed line.  I used a medium brown for my card and created a collage background on it which I glued into place one piece at a time.  I chose a dark green strip, embellished it with pewter eyelets and the adhered it in place using double sided tape.  I used 3D foam tape to adhere my large focal element to my card front.
