*** More Dies ***

 Hi folks,

Time for a new challenge at Fab'n'Funky #631

 where I am the host chosing a theme of "Dies or Punches"

I have used several dies from Birch Press on this card that I made for my Son in Laws birthday.        The family recently had the priviledge of watching a pod of female beluga whales and their calves swimming alongside the fishing boat they were on so I thought he would enjoy this card.

I had a very large numbered birthday this weekend with the celebrations still going on.  

I am blessed to have such a wonderful husband, family and friends...reminding me it's only a number.
