STAMPlorations Theme & Sketch challenge mid-month reminder!

Hello crafty peeps!
Just popping in with my mid month reminder for the 



For my card, I just used the sketch as my inspiration:


Here is the finished inside:

I looked through my box of UFO's (UnFinished Objects) and found this panel I made last summer. I think I was experimenting with embossing a cutting plate then using the smooshing technique to color it up. It also was misted with pearl Glimmer Mist so it's all shimmery! I trimmed it using the Crazy Double Running Stitch Nesting Rectangle dies and adhered it to my card base. For the focal panel, I heat embossed in white EP the scribbly line from the Artsy Border Maker stamp set, and also the word Birthday from the Big Greetings set. I die cut three times the Happy word die, stacked and glued them together and adhered to the panel. I glued a few sequins to
finish off the front of my card. On the inside, I used my MISTI to line up and stamp the words from the Blossom Overture stamp set.

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'.
