Twinkies is what I was going to say about the cream border first to make the star float. Then what ever you choose from there. Lovely star you did a great job.

OOps. I'll try again.
For anyone who has not tried a Carpenters Star, I strongly recommend it. Because it is HSTs, it gives a dramatic effect without huge pain.
