Hello! everyone It's me again Luanne for today and welcome to Sisters Craft Cafe. Don't forget to join our Mother's Day Special Giveaway which you can check the link on the left side bar and menu. My special card today is a SPINNER CARD, woohoo!

I watched a video on youtube on how to make this and it was so much fun and easy that I had to make one for tonight. Sooooo here it is! My card is sized 4.5x6 inches and following the sketch from The Sweetest Thing (click the sketch to join). I used a wool green and luscious lips glitter board for base and frame. My patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye - 12 Days of Christmas. For the base to hold my spinner card I used a white board and framed with the luscious lips glitter board. From the video I watched it was easier to make this as it uses a label punch but I don't have that so the measurement is based on the cutting pad, I just marked a line then cut using a cutter. I'm using a cute penguin stamp from Inkadinkado (I think-will recheck this) which I mounted on a four layered sizzlits flower die cut. Behind this spinning penguin is a .25 centavos coin mounted using a super strong double sided tape, then a small button - which causes it to spin and another .25 centavos to the other end. So it's a little heavy.


You can see here another image which I moved the card sideways and it spins! Hahaha! my husband and son also like it. I also added foam die cut shapes for Christmas, snowman, tree and star which I glittered with crystal glue glitters. Also added blings. Sentiment is from TCM and Stampin' Up. To complete the sketch I added layers of festive greenery and punched flowers.


Here is a side view of my card. How cool and fun is that? 


Here is a video I took to show when it spins. Sorry for bad quality it's my first time to take a video.


Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment.
See you again tomorrow!
