Happy Moments - Spinner Card (open)Yay! Keesh is back with her first Inkspiration's COLOUR challenge for the year using the combo below. I wanted to make a String/Spinner Suspension Card as I've seen them on Splitcoast and thought the birdcage would be great to use for this technique. You can find the tutorial for it here. The idea is to 'wind' the taut linen thread a few times and when the recipient opens the card, the birdcage will spin around. Neat, hey?
I've actually done another card, using this technique, ready for the launch of Sale-a-bration tomorrow and the ESAD blog hop!
The flower is made with the Cameo Coral coloured DSP from all the circle punches. The circles have been scrunched, edges sponged with Chocolate Chip ink and then held together with a Build-a-brad, that has a centre made from So Saffron textured cardstock.
