O.k…I am really…really tickled with this card! I love spinner cards and the last one I did was for Halloween…so you can see how long that has been!
My Mother in Laws Birthday is this week and trying to be prepared for my sons graduation…I have been planing my posts in advance!
As we all know…Birthdays are special and it deserves a special card! I have been trying to focus on stamp sets that are going "bye-bye"….WHY??? I really believe that we have so many great stamp sets that are being discontinued but are also very special!
I get asked…what are you going to do with your stamps?…well – simple, many of them I will sell, but there are some that I just love…and this one is one of them because I love the simplicity of it and then BANG it gives with this card!
I was inspired by super Stampin Up! Demonstrator, Dawn Olchefske and her video….please check it out as it is great! There were a couple of things that I changed up to make it work for me and also some tips for you!
Enjoy and here are some of the detail for my card!
- The colors of paper I used were, Rose Red for the base…daffodil delight and Watercolor Paper…why???
- I used the Bordering on Romance Stamp Set, and knowing that I would use the aqua painter…I knew this would be the perfect choice!
- Picking the colors from the Floral District Designer Series Paper, it was a super cute way to enhance this card!
- TIP – 1st, the Pinwheel Sizzlets is the bargain….only $4.95 and look at the fun and WOW!!! When you go to put it all together…push the entire pinwheel onto your paper piercer…it makes it sooo much easier to adhere a brad to it!
- TIP – When you use the Word Window Punch, I made a faint pencil make at 1/4" on the sides before I punch…not to make it too close ( it keeps it from tearing when you wiggle the penny part!)
- TIP – I stamped the sentiment from the Wishes Your Way Stamp Set, BELOW the pinwheel….this way it does not block the sweet message!
- The liner was for the envelope was the same as the pinwheel to carry on the theme!
- Extra Bling…I stamped the inside of the envelope as well as the outside of the envelope to make it even more special!
- When you see Dawn in the video do the SHAKE-SHAKE-SHAKE!!!! Do it…it makes all the difference in the world! I did triple mount the 3 dimensions that she just did 2….I personally think it helps!
I just LOVE "interactive cards" and I found myself playing and playing with this one! Too cute…too simple…too easy…I truly hope that you case my card and also watch Dawns great video!
I am hoping that once I get help ( with having the college kids home) ….they will help me learn to do videos…it will be super hard to keep them timely as I love to talk!
The moral of today's post is…do not be afraid to order stamps that are being discontinued…..this is a decision that Stampin' Up! unfortunately has the super hard choice to make…but by all means – it does not mean that they are "loser" stamps….if you like them…THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS!
Have a super day….please let me know how you like this….I wish you could see it spin….( trust me it is super cute!)
Until tomorrow…..
p.s. – please all keep your thoughts and prayers to the people in Oklahoma…so very tragic and sad.
Definitely casing this one! So fun!!!!!
Been wanting to do a spinner card. I have watched the video by Dawn! Really cool! Thank you for sharing your version of her card. I agree that having the sentiment lower than the spinner is a good idea.
Cute card, Susan, gotta try this one, just got that sizzler and have been wanting to use it, I think that will be this week, it’s suppose to rain for the next week, so indoors I will be:)
Dawn does amazing videos. This was really fun to make. I made one for Ann Schach’s birthday. I ended up mailing it in an envelope and she assured me it spun but I still think she was just humoring me! I think a padded envelope would be a must with the bulk of the pennies. I made another one last week in purples and tried three dimensionals – still not sure it that was the answer. I may try using the extra rubber from the stamps for a thicker spacer. But, these are fun to make. Also, I used a thinner paper and it tore a bit but then I was a little impatient putting it together. Anyway, very cute how you decorated it up!
