Patriotic Mash

Happy Birthday, America!  That's the sentiment I wanted to use on this card... but I don't have any.  And I didn't feel like doing it on the computer.  So, it doesn't have any sentiments.  I made this for the Friday Mashup challenge.
Looking at my card, I just realized that it's not exactly patriotic.  Oh well, consider it a color challenge, then!  I {heart} this new Stars #2 die that I got.  Why didn't I get it earlier?  And how timely that I got it just before Independence Day, so I can make cards with stars on them.  Trust me, that was not on my mind when I got it.

This card was inspired by Chat's card, seen HERE.
My Supplies List (all supplies and images by Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted):
Stamp Set(s): None!
Ink: None!
Papers:  Cherry Cobbler, Marina Mist
Accessories: Perfect Polka Dots embossing Folder, Stars #2 Big Shot Die, Marina Mist 1/8" Taffeta ribbon, Bitty Punch Pack (small circle), Subtles Brads, Star Brad (retired)
