May Your Layers Be Many and Your Frosting Thick

Despite a break in the rain and a sunny day, I woke up crabby this morning. (My breakfast consisted of strawberries, angel food cake and whipped cream, which should tell you something...) and the morning didn't really improve much from there, but now my son is in bed for his nap and things are quiet, so I'm hoping to get in a nap myself and regain some equilibrium. (fingers crossed)

This week's Late Night Stampers' Challenge is to make a birthday card (can never have too many of those, although I tend to use Thinking of You cards more often). I wanted to use Stacey's Curtain Call Color Challenge for this week and kept thinking about a card layout from a swap I received this month at the Inkers' meeting.

I like the clean lines and the greens work very nicely together--I was afraid the Artichoke would drown things out, but it is a nice accent. Plus, I got to ink up my new SAB set, Birthday Bliss, which I've been itching to do since it arrived a few weeks ago.
Supplies:
Certainly Celery, Barely Banana, Always Artichoke, Whisper White cs, Certainly Celery dsp
Birthday bliss stamp set
Always Artichoke, Certainly Celery, Barely Banana inks/markers
Certainly Celery satin ribbon
1 3/4" circle punch
Circles #2 die cut (used for template)
