Tuesday afternoon at the kitchen table. Playing with pin wheels and punches.
I was trying to come up with some ideas for masculine cards for next week’s class. I also had out lots of small punches to make some other embellishments.
Here’s a closer look at one of the pin wheels made up. You don’t really need a die at all, but it does make mass production a lot quicker.
For anyone who was interested in the finished card, shown in last Wednesday’s sneak peek, it can be found here. I’ve shared the others we made last week too.
I’m off to link up with Julia and see what everyone else has on their desk. Have a great week.

Hi Fiona
That's the thing about dies isn't it .... They do make things easier who would have thought you'd need a square die? But you do
Janet off to look at your cards @42
I love windmills - have loads in my garden!!! never used them on cards thought ..... maybe time to try.
I think it is great that one can get dies for almost anything nowadays.

The die may not be needed, but the trick of choosing good paper to cut the windmill from is all part of the skill..this stripe is perfect!
The die looks interesting...is it a Sizzlet? I'm sure they'll have a great time at the class with it.
Hugs. Pam#38

I didn't"t know there was such a thing as a pinwheel die! You've made a lovely job of these ... I bet this will be a popular card to make :).
Blimey, I haven't made pinwheels for ages!! Love the stripey paper, it gives a great effect!
Hugs, LLJ 43 xx
Oh my gosh, those are just the cutest pinwheels! What a fun die to have.
And I would love to send you a box of chocolate pudding! Can you please email your mailing information to me at djturtle(at)cox(dot)net. (I may have already had it at somepoint, but have switched computers.) Thank you! :o)
I have been cutting these by hand for years, NOW I WANT one of those dies!! LOL

What a perfect addition to any die cutting station. And that paper is perfect, too. And because it's still Wednesday in my part of the world, have a super WOYWW from #17.
Looking forward to seeing what you make with the pinwheel - I have used it on scrapbook pages so far but not cards
What a fantastic die, I have never seen one of those and the pinwheels look so easy to make too.
Belated WOYWW greetings

The tea has probably gone cold by now because it has taken me so long to get around everyone but its okay! I made it to you! I adore pin-wheels, you know I do, and I love the idea of a gadget to help with that.
That's a very neat tool to help making those pin wheels! Sweet :)
very belated woyww,

That die does make it look a lot easier x
