High Hopes Stars

I thought this chap would be great for a Man's get well card especially when they get Man's Flu. Of course if I made this a chaps card I need embellishments and that's where High Hopes Challenge comes in, the challenge this week is Stars.
Also a couple of weeks ago I made a Tilda card with dangling stars on her wand so that's where I got the inspiration for my large star and hanging stars. The papers are Pink Paislee and I made the photo corners and I'm really pleased how the paper piecing nightshirt turned out.
It's going to be another hot summer day maybe the hottest so far.
