Wednesday's What's On the Desk?

I have a box of "orphaned" card pieces that never made it to an actual card.  So sad...so today I pulled out my box for my Wednesday's What's on the Desk?  Watch me create with bits and pieces.


This was my starting point.  Lots of pieces with nowhere to go...but let's change that.


I have an idea, and I need some pretty flowers.  The Happy Birthday To You (FREE Sale-a-Bration item) is a good place to start.


I like the yellow scalloped circle on my desk, so let's make these flowers Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green.


Now how to combine all these pieces into a card.


I've got this piece of Granny Apple Green Pigment Sprinkles paper sitting around, so I cut a few of the leaves with the Birthday dies.


Now, where am I going?


OK, liking it...but needs a little more Bermuda Bay to go with the "happy"...


How about some sprigs from the same dies?  Yes, please, in the Noble Peacock foil to match the word.


And what color for the greeting?  Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green or Daffodil Delight?




Oh, that last one is my favorite.


The circle needed some texture, so I embossed it (retired embossing folder 😟).


Lots of layering, but I like it.  Still needs something though...


Yes!  Noble Peacock and Holiday Rhinestones!  Perfect bits of bling.

OK, ready for my closeup:


Here we are - lots of leftovers that, with the help of a new stamp set, come together in a lovely card.


What's on YOUR desk?
