Just A Note with Freshly Made Sketch #502

This sparkly card was made for a friend who gives his time to entertain our community with his DJ skills. 

This second photo show off the sparkly embossing powder. I achieved this effect by stamping in Versamark Ink, then Sapphire and stamped onto paper.  Polysparkle Tinsel Embossing Powder (long ago retired Close to my Heart) was sprinkled on top and then heated with embossing heat gun.
