The Glittered Poppleberry

  Good Afternoon crafty friends! I cannot believe how fast this year has flown by, its crazy and I am starting to panic. Christmas is going to be here in the blink of an eye. So I've been doing lots of crafting along with all these fab deskers, head over to The stamping ground to check out some other messy desks! In this picture, my empty coffee ...I need to make another :) So front and centre are some MDF baubles that I decorated and sealed, finally adding a ribbon loop to each. (Yes I did burn myself with the glue gun again!) Above the keyboard is my Ipad and apple pencil I use for designing stickers for my etsy shop.

I cut a strip the width of the ATC, from my favourite section of that sheet. I used my picked raspberry distress oxide to ink the edges of the paper.

So out came the hot glue gun. I stuck this to the opposite corner. The centre seemed empty by this point, therefore I grabbed my distress Matt collage medium and added, cosmic shimmer powder in purple. Using a pallets knife, I smeared some d...
