Birthday Card Using Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

Hi to all my followers, fellow crafters and readers.  It was a busy and hot weekend here in Southern CA.  I found some free time to finish a couple cards I had started several weeks ago.  My favorite one is this birthday card; which uses my Bugaboo Silhouette Butterfly and Flowers digital stamp.  I love their stamps; especially the silhouettes.  I love black and white cards.  I think they look so elegant.

I used my Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge to cut the base at 5 inches.  I also used the font layer to cut the beautiful doily type cuts.  I completed the inside with the same type of cut.

Inside using two different CTMH stamp sets. The left side is from CTMH "Hooray Bouquet" and on the right is from CTMH "4 My Friend" stamp sets.
