Celebrate Chinese New Year

Created this Chinese New Year card using Cricut cartridges: 1.  Designer Calendar words 'Chinese New Year' and 
2.  Elegant Edges for the red shaped card base & Kraft cardstock with a Chinese design printed on Kraft cardstock frame layer.

Added a button that is close in animal to it being Year of the Goat. Found the button in a jar of buttons I bought at an estate sale this past weekend.
