I cut the die again out of black card, then used that as a shadow behind the white die cut. I glued them onto the pixied oval, then added mounting foam and attached it to the embossed background. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are

I had forgotten how much I like the pixie dust. And the embossing on this card is lovely.
Hi Sue,
I like the die and the sentiment. Also like the pixie powdered background. AND it is a quick one to do - in a word, FABULOUS.
Hugs

This die set is perfect for my favorite reason to send a card...simply to encourage and uplift someone. This year has been difficult for so many so sending a card meant to Brighten Your Day is the best possible reason for sending a card.
