A round of applause!

This week's challenge at CAS-ual Fridays is "A round  of applause" - a project incorporating at least one circle ans celebrates  an accomplishment.

Here is my card - I really MUST learn more about lighting. There's actually a lot of depth to it, so the star is set back behind the aperture, but even with the card turned partly sideways it doesn't show properly. I know I need to sort out a way of lighting it from the side to cast a shadow and give it depth, but I've just not had enough practise at this card photography lark to understand the techniques yet!
