A sparkling background draws the eye to the solo star in the sky glittering above the city at night. A slightly abstract cityscape stands out in stark contrast to the colored sky. Three dimensions on this card bring each layer to life. A simple sentiment almost whispers from its banner placement. This card is multifaceted and could be masculine or feminine.
