Desk Diving

Hello Nomad friends.  I have so much stuff on my desk.   For instance an empty ice cream lolly box, because after good ice cream there remains good cardboard LOL.  I decided to cut a panel with a deckle edge die and emboss with Simon Says Stamp firework embossing folder.  Then I grabbed some embossing powder and went a bit crazy.  I inked my panel and added quite a lot of Pearl Gold Sparkle, decided that would be a bit of a challenge for the camera so reinked parts of the panel and used WOW metallic copper sparkle.  Then I filled in the gaps with Topaz Twinkle to give the blue and white/sparkly bits.

 

Bling!!!!!  I inked the edges of the panel and also the raised firework pattern with potting soil archival ink and offset the panel on a navy card base.  Then I grabbed this MDF dragon, which has also been lurking on my desk for ages, that seemed to fit perfectly with this firey explosion of a background.  I stamped the happy birthday on a scrap of gold card and added it to the card.  Good glue is required to stick paper on all that sparkly embossed texture.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Off to find some more desk treasures....  Hugz
