Step1: Assembling XCS

i deliberately work here in engrave mode because it is clearer for me for the compilation

here i have created a star shape in affinity and loaded it into XCS with 2 seagulls and a boat
everything was put together 
here i used the colors as an aid to see which layers should be which later on

as soon as everything fits, select all planes of the same color and choose unite

then I inserted a text and tilted it slightly
two stars on the side
I subtracted the text and the stars from the layer with substract

Important: please do not throw away the cutout from the stars

Finally, change everything to cut and check again
i cut the smaller area to 1mm wood

one string and 5 beads
i painted the beads with the same color as the background
i used a schlaschik skewer to help me :)

Pull the string through the star
then thread the beads on both ends
make a knot at the end
