Summer Theme

So anything summery we want to see it!
For my creation this week I decided to create something I have admired for a long time!
PINWHEELS!!! Yippeee


I love how this turned out! Pinwheels always cast me back to the beach! Happy Days :D
I did something a bit different for this card though! I thought to myself.... wouldnt; this make an awesome gift! So yes, I created a take-away part!
So yes! You can actually take the pinwheel off and keep it! On your fridge or magnetic board or car! hehhehehe!!

I wanted to put the magnetic on the card underneath so it didn't show but unfortunately it wouldn't stick! Boo Hiss Booo!

None-the-less the surprise is still there!

I took my pinwheel tutorial from this lovely lady's blog.

    Gorgeous card! Love the pinwheel - I got the kids to make a few to put on the allotment hoping to scare away the birds :-) Love 'n' hugs, Mel xx

    Gorgeous. This has taken me back to my youth, listening to these little windmills whipping around in the garden! Great card.

    Ooh seeing this reminded me of pinwheels as a kid, I loved them! such fun. And a fantastic idea to make it into a little gift so that it can be kept. It's a brilliant summer card, Jennie, and I bet everyone who sees it has been smiling with nostalgia. CoB
