I made this card for my Dad's 80th birthday. It was so hard to take a good picture that would show the true colours.
For the "collage" image I started with a music background stamp and then used numerous stamps and parts of stamps to show some of the things which are important to and characterized my dad.
The word DAD, the tag, the main image and a couple of the layers are all lifted on dimensions to create depth.
It actually ended up being a rather thick card - my dad loves it and I'm very pleased with the way it turned out.
