I'm hosting my first Card Caravan Challenge at the Hybrid Chick this weekend. I wanted to start with something easy, so I picked a Spring theme. When I saw Pinwheel by Wishing Well Creations, I knew it was just what I wanted to use for my card. I was inspired by the digital elements to create my own pinwheels, so I printed the patterned papers on both sides, cut 2" squares and folded them up. I stapled the centers and then sewed buttons to cover the staple. This kit is just perfect for little boy stamps, so I chose S.W.A.L.K. Best Pals available at Crafter's Companion. I stamped the image on Make It Colour paper and colored it with Spectrum Noirs.
I had enough pinwheels to decorate the inside too. Isn't that little frog cute?
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
1. Allsorts #150 - buttons and thread
2. Crazy 4 Challenges #132 - buttons
