Ask and you shall receive.... I was inundated with requests to share how I made my Pinwheel Cards so here is a video for you. They are sooooo easy, you will be amazed. I used the Merry Moments DSP, Petals A Plenty Impressions Folder and Corduroy Brads
I will post all my Pinwheel Cards here so they are all in one place for you. I used a variety of brads in the centers; Chocolate Chip Corduroy Brads, 5/8" Neutrals Brads, Clear Rhinestone Brads and the Build-A-Brad. The papers are Cast-A-Spell, Autumn Traditions and Merry Moments
This is such an easy and fun way to use up some of the DSP you have laying around. I look forward to making more of these with my other packages. :-)
Thanks for looking!!
Barb: This is so WonDerFul!! Thanks so much for sharing. I will definately be using this at my next workshop!! Thanks a bunch!!

I was thrilled to hear you were posting a set of instructions. I have to give you a laugh though....I saw the photos and thought I could do it myself....wrong...I was cutting squares, sliding pieces together...my attempt would have been the video of the day. Thank you so much for sharing ! The simplicity is beautiful !! Have a great day !

Okay, well, ummm, {blush}, that was a lot easier than I expected, LOL! I'm almost embarassed I asked!! It never occurred to me to start with the base and not the squares!! (Go ahead and laugh!) Thank you for clearing this up for me! GREAT video!

Great video, Barb. Love the tip for using the grid paper to perfectly center the base pieces. I always forget to use the grid for stuff like that!
