Simply Blingy

Hello Nomad friends.  It's time for a little more inspiration for the May Let's Squash It! challenge, leave some space and bling it up!

I've kept it simple and blinged it up with Nellie Snellen Ball Flower embossing folder.  

 
I used an offwhite wood effect panel, smeared the flat side of my folder with Tumbled Glass distress ink and embossed.  No water added and I got this lovely swirl effect with the ink.  Gorgeous!!!  I think it goes well with the subtle woodgrain texture.  I blinged up my flowers with rhinestones and stamped the Norwegian Happy Birthday sentiment.   A blue card base and done!!   
 

I hope you get some time to grab your folders and bling and join the fun.  Jo did a fabulous technique time post so check that out for ideas and inspiration.   

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
