Here's my desk~
I know. Scary. Ugh. I'm hoping you won't hold it against me. I'm so incredibly messy when I create, but I HATE seeing spaces that could hold something...even scraps of paper, so I tend to create piles. ;) Do, please don't judge me! Love me for what I am!
In other news, I've found a fabulous blog (Twins Moms) that has some wonderful candy once it reaches 200 followers!!!
Here's what you'll get~
I've added the button to my sidebar, too, for quick clicking success! :) Go on over and follow her!
Okay, now here's the card I have for you tonight~
And some details~
I tried to show the shimmer of the chandelier--I embossed the dark blue with Kaleidoscope embossing powder and so it's gorgeous! :) The image I used as my chandelier isn't a chandelier stamp, I just turned it into one because it totally looks like it could be one! Just needed to add the shine and bling!
Can I just say, I LOVE this card--it turned out better than I thought it would, which always makes me happy! :) I hope you like it, too! I hope you're inspired to follow along with the challenges I'm submitting this beauty into.
I'm submitting this card into the following fabulous challenges~

Hi! Thanks for the very sweet comments to my first woyww!!
ReplyDeletePersonally, I don't think you can create good art from a clean work space. ;) Mine is always a wreck!
What a lovely card! your desk reminds me of mine lol A messy desk is busy desk :)
ReplyDeleteJudge you? For a workdesk that looks cmpletely normal? No, that's not what we're about at all! Welcome to WOYWW, I'm a bit worried that you may not have enough ink pads....I like the card very much, and the chandelier is lovely and sparkly!
ReplyDeleteHee hee - you do maximise your space Mynnette. I've given up with most of my house - I have a husband a daughter and a son who care nothing for tidiness. My craft room however has to be clean and tidy every time I start a new project and I've lost count of the amount of times I've re-organised my space to make it cleaner and tidier!!! - Jacqueline xx
ReplyDeleteI love how you used the different coloured gems on your chandelier, just gives it that little extra something. As far as your desk goes, wellll...you gotta get into a mess before you get out of a mess! that's always my excuse anyways lol.
ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteFirst, thank you for taking the time to visit my Blog, Adorn, much appreciated.
Wonderful colours and textures on your card. So glad you shared with us at Fashionable Stamping Challenge.

I always use that SU image oriented the other way, so it's super fun to see it "upside down." Thanks for sharing your card and your work space.
ReplyDeleteMynnette - the sparkly chandelier is absolutely gorgeous and really reminds me of being in Mumbai! Lovely card. Thanks for playing along with CR84FN!
ReplyDeletelove your card! who cares how messy it is that just mean you're creating away. Honestly, My space looks like that as well when I really get going. Thanks for visiting me!

Oh this really caught my eye Mynnette. The glitzed out chandelier is so fun and the DPs look like wall paper behind it!
ReplyDeletefabulous creation! Thanks for joining us this week at Pile it on for our Anything goes challenge! Gemma :)

ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us at FSC this fortnight.
Fab card and i love the sparkly chandelier. Messy desks are very ok on here - good job as mine is messy more often than not. Happy 2012. Anne x
ReplyDeleteI think your desk looks pretty sane compared to mine! I love the clever way you created the chandelier! I am always inspired by using stamps in a fun and unexpected way. Great job.!
ReplyDeleteLovely card.... great layout and colour scheme. If you think your desk is is a mess ..... you haven't seen mine yet!! No room on mine at all at the moment. Late this week but see you soon and welcome to WOYWW!
