FS178, Speedy's Friends, Speedy the Cat loves hat pins!

Photo Details

Poster: markie's mom

Hi! This card was made for today's Featured Stamper Challenge: Cookie Baker. I CASED, (Copy And Share Everything), this card AND for today's Speedy's Friends Challenge to use a die cut on a card.

I have a few of each color of hat pins sitting in a pin cushion on my desk. I "loaded" them with Swarovski Crystals, so they REALLY Shine. And, of course, Speedy the Cat thinks they are AWESOME! He sits on my desk and looks like he's been sniffing catnip while staring at the cushion! LOL However, tonight, he started to BITE this one! I HAD to add the pin to today's card.

I changed: the color combo, stamps, and added a bow, pin and embossed the back panel. However, I kept the essence of the original card.

Finished size: 5" square
Total Time to complete: 21 minutes

What do you think?
