Such a tragic waste. *CRIES* I am still in shock. M came upstairs to my office this morning and discovered the situation as you see. E had been "playing" and did about $25 worth of damage. I am saddened. I decided her punishment would be that we would not go to the movie that we were planning to go to today. Such a terrible waste.
If you ever wondered if embossing powder feels like sand and gets everywhere -- I assure you it does. Clean up sucked. I will take this moment to tell you about the one thing that was my lifesaver. I had one of those lint sticky paper thingamagigs and it worked perfectly to pick up lots of the powder after I had swept away the large part, so my desk is mostly better. So keep that in mind if this ever happens to you. I am just thankful that E did not open the staz on pad that was close by or any of my other tools that were piled on the desk after a mucho creative weekend.
The casualties were 1/4 iridescent ice embossing powder, full heat and stick powder, 3/4 sterling silver, and a brand spanking new - just got it in my last SU order CRYSTAL clear. *cries* Oh and also a pale pink embossing powder not from SU! I guess that is what I get for just hoarding it eh? Needless to say, I will have to add those to my next SU order -- which probably will not be until the new catalog!

I have 2 extra Crystal Clear EPs here, but you'd have already received yours by the time it would get there from here (Canada).
Sorry 'bout the mess. I'm sure tomorrow will be a a better day! If all else fails, shake up the containers and see what you come up with. Irridescent Ice and Black would be awesome together!

Years ago my DD opened a Memories (permanent) ink reinker and shook it in a room with an off-white rug so I can relate to your situation.
