Thanks

 Hello there my crafty friends!  I just thought that the Theresa die and one of my Pixie Powder backgrounds were a marriage made in heaven! LOL    I selected a piece that I made awhile ago that used Aubergine Dream and Midnight Blue Pixie Powders and cut the Theresa Background die into it.  I cut another of the Theresa dies in Black and shadowed the Pixie powder one with it.  Next I used the Theresa Edger set and cut the sides of the background with them.  I cut a matching white backing piece for them, then added mounting foam to raise them.  I glued the centre of the background onto a piece of white card and added the raised sides to it.  I cut a Decorative Flag die in white and added it with foam across the lower portion of the card.  The Bold Thanks sentiment was cut out of a bit of leftover pixied card as well as the Whirligig Flower pieces.  I glued the sentiment onto the flag die and assembled the flower.  The flower was added to the end of the flag and white Magnolia Corner pieces were nipped apart to use as accents.  I added small pearls to the junctions in the lattice part of the die.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  7" in size.  All for now. Sue x
