DESIGN NOTES:
I fussy Cut the Stamp Fairy's "Thank You 5" digital image and fussy cut the roses on the pattern paper.  Had both of them matted and fussy cut again.  Popped up the edges of the fussy cut roses facing the photo at the center.  Also, popped up the Stamp Fairy & my photo at center with foam squares for dimension. Drawn on the plain lamp post chipboard.  Title of the LO is a title of a song made famous and composed by a local Filipino band named Shamrock.
