Good Sunday morning all! I selected a pixied piece from my background stash. I used Aqua Lagoon and Golden Mint Pixie Powders on it. I used the Stitched Starburst die and cut it into the card. I backed it with a piece of black gloss card. I used the Just Because Block Sentiment and cut it with the outer die from the Thank You Block Sentiment attached in the centre of the card. I added mounting foam to the back of the outside part, then recessed the Block sentiment down into the aperture. I cut the Just Because again out of white gloss card and black card. I used the sentiment cut in black as a shadow behind the white gloss die cut and glued it to the centre of the card. I made a white flower using the Pierced Summer Blossoms and seated it in the upper corner with some white leaves. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue.Love the stitched starburst die so it goes without saying that I love this card. I thought it would be quite complicated to replicate, but now that I have read your explanation, it is not so daunting after all.
