I love this MFT die as it's perfect for quick cards and a great way to use snippets too - this card is for Steve's nephew's 18th birthday.
I die cut the sentiment from a kraft card, trimmed it so there was a border down each side and attached it to the front of the card. I cut strips of cream hammer card and attached those on both sides of the panel. I glued a snippet of marbled paper to a snippet of thin card so it was the same thickness as the kraft panel and die cut 'BIG' from the paper before inlaying it into the card. The rest of the sentiment was die cut from more snippets of cream hammer card and inlaid into the panel. I die cut three stars (one medium and two small) from the marbled paper and '18' from kraft card. The numbers were attached to the larger star before the stars were attached to the card with foam pads.
To make this card I used:
6" x 6" kraft card blank
My Favorite Things 'Big Birthday Wishes', Memory Box 'Classic Numbers' and Xcut 'Nesting Star' dies
Snippets of kraft card, cream hammer card, thin white card and blue and cream marbled paper

Love the size of your die cut sentiment, it makes a wonderful focal point especially in the colours you used
I like this card and The inlaid words. It is my son's birthday shortly and have been at a loss as what card to make this year. You might just have saved my bacon! Hugs Mrs A.

That's a great 18th birthday card Kath and I love the blue marbled paper and the added stars, and the number sits perfectly on the larger one. x
