Women's Day Insta Hop, Blog Hop & Linky Party

 

Hello and welcome crafty friends!

I'm thrilled to be joining in the

International Women's Day Insta and Blog Hop & Linky Party!

STAMPlorations is one of the many amazing

sponsors joining in this fun hop & linky party.

Just look at all of these fabulous companies

who are contributing! WOW!



Today we celebrate all women, all around the globe, in all their diversity!

It's a beautiful thing!

For my card, I started by die cutting water color paper using the largest die from the

Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting dies.

Once I heat embossed in gold the images and sentiment from the

Shine Bright stamp set, I set about

 coloring the light bulbs using Derwent

Inktense blocks. After the panel dried, I drew

some 'cords' to have them hanging off the top edge:



So shiny!

adding pinterest script 3. Changing the Position of the Pin it! button The cool thing about this code is that you have some freedom over where the Pinterest button for Blogger will go over the image. Take a look at the code that you just copied and pasted into the HTML for the word 'center'.
