Pinwheel Cards

today I have two versions of a Pinwheel card.

Tips:

  • The only difference between the two cards is that Card 2 (the blue one) has extra layers behind the pinwheel shape.
  • Card 1 pinwheel:
    • 2 pieces each 6.5cm square of Lights Aglow DSP
    • 4 pieces each 3cm square of one pattern of Lights Aglow DSP
    • 4 pieces each 3cm square of another pattern of Lights Aglow DSP
    • Layer the two 6.5cm pieces in a diamond shape. The finished shape will have 8 points.
    • Start adhering the 3cm pieces lining the first one up with point 1 (top of the 8 point shape) Start with one of the lighter DSP pieces and only add adhesive to the right hand side of this first piece.
    • Adhere one of the darker DSP pieces over the first piece lining it up to point 2.
    • Adhere one of the lighter DSP pieces over the second lining it up to point 3.
    • Continue adding the small pieces lining each up to the next point.
    • When you get to the last piece, the right hand side of it needs to be tucked under the left hand side of the first piece.
    • Add to card base and decorate further as desired.
  • Card 2 pinwheel:
    • 2 pieces each 7.5cm square of Boho Blue cardstock
    • 2 pieces each 6.5cm square of Night of Navy cardstock
    • 4 pieces each 3cm square of one pattern of Countryside Inn DSP
    • 4 pieces each 3cm square of another pattern of Countryside Inn DSP
    • Layer a piece of the 6.5cm onto a piece of the 7.5cm. Repeat with the other two pieces. Adhere them into a diamond shape. The finished shape will have 8 points.
    • Start adhering the 3cm pieces lining the first one up with point 1 (top of the 8 point shape) Start with one of the lighter DSP pieces and only add adhesive to the right hand side of this first piece.
    • Adhere one of the darker DSP pieces over the first piece lining it up to point 2.
    • Adhere one of the lighter DSP pieces over the second lining it up to point 3.
    • Continue adding the small pieces lining each up to the next point.
    • When you get to the last piece, the right hand side of it needs to be tucked under the left hand side of the first piece.
    • Add to card base and decorate further as desired.
