Congratulations
Hello crafters! I started by creating a background using Pixie Sparkles. I used Coral Crush and Red Oxide Pixie Sparkles. Once dry, I embossed the piece using the Floral Brocade embossing folder. Using the Vintage Label Frames, I cut a larger white frame and attached it to the background with mountng foam. Next I cut two smaller dies in the set and matted them, then attached them to the centre of the frame. Next, I cut the Congratulations die out of soft salmon card and shadowed it in black. I glued the sentiment across the centre of the card. Using the Mini Cosmos dies, I made three flowers and added green leaves then seated them under the sentiment. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/2" in size.

Hi Sue. What a dramatic and explosion of Pixie colour, and those dainty mini cosmos are just so cute and beautiful, one sample I'd love to see 'for real' I actually planted my white and pink Cosmos plants yesterday, can't wait to see them come into full bloom.
Love to you and all that visit today xxx
I do hope you read my reply to the winners post yesterday and I hope I didn't offend you.

Another lovely example of pixie powders and amazing frames. Congratulations to all the winners. Take care everyone x
A gorgeous post and the background is stunning - a very apt card for those winners yesterday.... congrats to everyone....
Hi Sue,
A lovely card. The Pixie background is fabulous. You can’t beat a Pixied background in my mind. The little Cosmos are very sweet.

Good morning Sue,
I love the colours you have used in your background & always useful to have cards with congratulations to hand. Yvonne xx
Hi Sue. What a really lovely background you have created for this card. It would work equally well for either gender (although I may want to use a different embossing folder for the men).
I love the shape of the frames you have used which shows up so nicely having been cut in white card.

Hi Sue
Great card, especially the background. I always forget to emboss a pixied background. Very fitting sentiment for all of yesterdays winners too. The little cosmos flowers just add that special finishing touch.
