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!
For all the details about the hop and linky party, do visit

Today, and everyday, is all about lifting women up!
Come join the celebration!!

ReplyDeleteI love that you embossed the image and then colored it. That is such a great look!
ReplyDeleteI love the light coming from some bulbs but the other one having that very beautiful floral interior... such a cool juxtaposition! I also love the embossing! Thank you for being part of this hop - it's been very inspirational to see all the cool "makes."
