Cricut Artistry Birthday Cake card

Cricut Artistry Birthday Cake card
Quick and Easy card Monday

Hello, friends!

Today, I am hosting the challenge over at Bitten By the Bug. I asked all of the team members to make something with a birthday cake on it. For my cake, I decided I wanted it to have an elegance to it. This card would work well for weddings too!

I used the Artistry cartridge on this card. The cake stand was shortened though using Design Space. It is quite tall and would not have fit with the cake at this size if it had not been shortened. 

Don't forget that I will have a great video explaining another function. It is my favorite function, so I cannot wait for you guys to see it!

If you have a Cricut Explore, here is the file: Cricut Artistry Birthday Cake card

If you do not have an Explore, here are the sizes:
cake: 2 1/2"
candle: 1 1/4"
cake stand: 1 1/4"
coral flowers: 1" and 3/4"
daisies: 1 1/2" and 1"
banner: 3/4"
leaves - 1" and 1/2"
