Simon Says "Pin It!"

Gold is so trendy right now - I must say, if I'm reaching for a metallic colour my first instinct is silver. I made a definite point of pulling out the gold this time. This pin was one left over from my grandmother's birthday card (you can see that here) - I made extra just to be sure I had enough. This one lonely pin was perfect for this week's Simon Says Stamp challenge to "Pin it."

Supplies: Stampendous medallion stamp; Paper Smooches sentiment; Stampendous Pirate Gold embossing powder; Versamark; corsage pin from Michaels; beads & seam binding from stash

I trimmed the card stock down after embossing to allow a smidge of the white card base to show, and to give the poky part of the pin room to be tucked in behind. After poking the pin through the paper, I used foam tape to make sure it was stuck tight, and to attach it to the base. You don't want your recipient pricking their finger when they open the envelope!
