The die cut stars were then laid out onto the small panel of Basic White card to work out the positioning. Once I had them arranged, I lifted them one at a time and glued them in place using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The overhanging pieces of stars were trimmed off with scissors and the layer was glued to the Real Red panel which was added to the Azure Afternoon card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Charming Sentiments stamp set, was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Basic Black ink, covered it with White Embossing Powder and used my Heat Tool to set it. I flagged the ends before adding it to the card front on Mini Glue Dots as I did not want to add anymore height to the card.
