Dad's 60th Birthday Card - Part 1

Hi All,
And how is everyone? I am absolutely shattered, been soooooooo busy at work and having to do 10 hour days at the moment :o( No fun at all! Have managed to fit in a bit of card making though starting with this card, my Dad's 60th birthday card. I couldn't think what to make and knew it had to be a special card, then it came to me.....a scrap book card documenting Dad's life! I stuck two 8x8 inch cards together and decorated all 5 sides of the mammoth card - It took me the whole weekend to get all the stamps together but I'm soooooo happy with the result. Here's the first lot of piccies, I'll detail where I got everything from after each page!
