Diaper Pins for Embellishing

I made these cute little diaper pins from a regular safety pin and the Word Window punch!

First you snip the pin around the half way point. I used a regular wire cutter/pliers for that. The pin springs open a bit (as seen in the photo) so you need to pinch it shut until it's to were you'd like it. Close enough to be hidden behind the card stock. I punched out the colors I wanted and cut the ends off. I used a little Crystal Effects (Fabulous stuff!!!!) to attach them to the pin and now I have some cute diaper pins for some baby cards!
Thanks for looking!
