Hello Friend
Hello bloggers! I selected a piece of pixied card from my stash to use for today's card. I used Emerald Green, Olive Green and Golden Mint Pixie Powders on it. Next I used the Poinsettia Scalloped Border and cut four of the scalloped lattice die in the set. I cut two in white and two in black. I shadowed each of the white die cuts with the black die cuts. I glued them to the top and bottom edges of the pixied card background. I cut two thin strips of the piexied card and added black and white mats to them and glued them to the top and bottom edges of the pixied card. I cut the Hello Friend in black and glued it to a white shadow backing then added it to the centre of the card. Using the Pinwheel Florals, I made a white flower and added it to the lower corner with foliage as accents. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" 8 1/4" in size.

Wow!! Your pixie card background is really awesome!! Love how you used it with the fabulous dies, and the diecuts looks just perfect in white! Adorable card, great design!
Very pretty card. I wonder what your new launch will be! Sure to be interesting. X
Good Morning Sue. Oh a beautiful card today. I love how you have used the Poinsettia lattice border. I bought this set before Christmas and put
it down on my work top. When I came to use it for my cards I couldn't find it I searched all over for it. When I cleared away after Xmas I FOUND IT. Typical. Well at least you have given me a reason to open it and have a go with it. Thankyou Sue Looking forward to the new launch tomorrow. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
Please stay safe and well 🙏 everyone
