Birthday card featuring a lot of stars, fun background papers and some tied paper cording

This card is for DH birthday!  I was inspired by a card on line that was full of stars and so I dug into my little stash of stars (punchies and die cuts) and found the large green ones.  I embossed them with a star embossing folder (SU) and then added smaller colourful stars I found in the bin as well.  I had discarded the strip in the middle as it had been part of the packaging on a paper bundle but when the stars matched it so well I dug it out and trimmed it out.  I tore both sides, cut it in half and added a blue strip which I stamped with little circles in blue ink.  I added the greeting and then the star with the yellow center which coordinates very nicely with my decorative background.  I added three pewter eyelets on each end and tied int blue and green paper cording tying with a double knot.   I adhered the embellished strip to my background and then added it to my large card front.  I added all the other large stars and it still needed something so back to the bin for a few more stars!!  That was much better!!!  Therese
