Cricut Cardz Challenge #77 Card Feature

I just thought I'd whip up a quick card today to play along with Cricut Cardz Challenge #77 using a card feature from any Cricut cartridge.  I have a couple cartridges that are my standby cartridges with a card feature.  They're Stretch Your Imagination and A Child's Year.  Two oldies but goodies.  For this card I used A Child's Year.  The cut is on page 36 of the manual.  This was super simple and quick to make.  I used my Gypsy to get the sizing at 5.25".  I cut the card from white cardstock and ran it through my Cuttlebug Swiss Dot embossing folder.  I backed the cut out flowers with 1.5" circles I punched from yellow scraps from DCWV Lemon Flower stack and glued them behind the flowers and then backed it with a piece of green cardstock.  My sentiment banner is a printable stamp from The Cutting Cafe's Ribbon Banner set.  I added some small yellow buttons to the center of each flower and that was it.  Less than 10 minutes from start to finish.  I'll also be entering this card into two other challenges:

This is SO pretty. I love the "spotlight" technique used here rather than cutting the daisies and adhering to the front of the card. Thanks for the inspiration. I love this!
