Birthday Card Using Cricut Art Philosophy and Cricut Artiste Cartridges

Hello friends.   How is everyone doing?  It has started warming up again in Southern CA; so we have had in the upper 80's already.  I wish we could have had cooler weather until the end of April or first part of May; instead of getting so hot so fast.

I created this darling card for one of my granddaughters.  I used Art by Miran Fairy Freya;. It is the fabulous free image we receive for the Art by Miran April Progressive Facebook Challenge.  If you haven't been participating in this challenge each month; you can purchase it for a discounted price, create something, join the challenge and get the next months image free.  Check it out at Art by Miran Facebook Group.  Be sure to join, if you haven't already.
