Two For Tuesday: Sweet and Sour Pinwheels and Love Letters
August 17th, 2010
Welcome to this week’s Two For Tuesday feature! Each week I use one layout and make 2 cards with different supplies.
The first card showcases the super trendy and fun pinwheel card! We saw these made at Convention this year, then one of my downline demonstrated this at our group event this month.
I thought the Sweet and Sour Specialty Paper would be perfect for pinwheels! The fun, sassy patterns and the GLOSS on one side of each sheet…oh, my! I’m smitten with it! View the video to see how simple these are to make, you’ll be astounded!
And if you like this video, you will LOVE the videos I feature for Club Inbox…a new kind of club!

The second card uses the same layout, but gives a very different feel. The above is fun and whimsical. The thank you card is romantic and a bit of vintage. I hope you can get inspired and try this layout and put in a punch of your own!

Nothing like that red, black and white color scheme! It is so classic and elegant. That DSP could be used for so many things-Love it!

Catherine, thank you so much for joining us at Papercraft Star. I think that the pinwheel is so stinkin’ cute. I’ve been on the verge of making one for a long while, and this has motivated me to get up and do it. Love the colors and the choice papers!
