Doing a Pin Wheely!

Who hasn't tried a wheely with their two wheeler when the pavement is hot?  Though we are a bit past that kind of summer activity, we did think that a pretty card that does a wheely of its own would be fun.  Thanks to our Minnesota neighbor, Dawn Olchefske and Splitcoast Stampers we were able to do our own spin on a crisscross pinwheel card.  Check out Dawn's Pinwheel Fun Fold Tutorial.  Easy as a summer's day and so impressive. Here's our version . . .

Everyday Chic Pinwheel Card

Everyday Chic Designer Series Paper provides the drama for our Pinwheel card.  We cut the 8" x 8" square, picked the side we wanted for the inside, positioned it on the Diagonal Scoreboard and commenced to scoring our way to a beautiful card that anyone would be proud to give.  Although the fold will hold the card closed perfectly well, we thought a pretty flower on a belly band would be frosting on the cake.  We chose Real Red Card Stock, flowers and leaves from Birthday Blossoms, punched the flower with our Pansy Punch, and decorated them up with the new Metal Trimmed Pearls from ©Stampin’ Up! The inside is as pretty as the cover.  Adorned with more stamping from Birthday Blossoms, this is a card with potential for every season of the year!
