Clean and Simple - Birthday Card

I have a lot of birthdays coming up this month, so I needed to step away from the Christmas theme I've got going.   For this birthday card, I used the sketch from the Clean and Simple challenge.

 
 
I used Kraft cardstock for my card base.  The paper is from the Clementine Paper pack.   This card was really quick because I used the Clementine Canvas Compliments for my 'spray' of flowers.  The "Happy Birthday" was stamped with Twilight ink onto Cashmere Cardstock.  I cut the banner with the Artiste Cricut Cartridge and applied it to a Dimensional Element of the same size.  The stamp and the dimensional element are both part of the Artiste Cricut Collection.  The Artiste Collection includes 3 stamp sets and 3 different sets of dimensional elements that coordinate with the stamps. (SO COOL!)

RECIPE:
Kraft Cardstock (Z1375)
Clementine Paper Pack (X7156B)
Clementine Canvas Compliment Shapes (X7156C)
Brown & Tan Sparkle Assorment (Z1753)
Artiste Cricut Collection (Z1790)

I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measureme...
