It is frustrating when mirri card does not show well on photographs.... that's my excuse anyhow! I started with a white 8" square card base and trimmed a sheet of silver mirri to leave a narrow border. I used the largest die from the Decorative Blossom Corner Set and die cut in the top left and bottom right of the mirri card. I then cut a border in the middle of the mirri to expose the white base card. I added dries clear glue to the back of these two pieces and adhered to the card base. Next I die cut and embossed the Royal Love Die twice on silver mirri and once on white card. The two mirri die cuts were glued together then I added glue to the white die cut and adhered this, slightly offset, onto the mirri card, to give a shadow effect. I then die cut 2 more pieces of white card using the Stitched Flags from the Frames & Tags Collection, glued these together and added mounting foam to the back. This was then adhered to the centre 'panel' with the topper adhered to it. I added two crystal twinkle stars to either end of the white panel and to complete I added Glossy Accents along the border and main focal point.
