After a couple days of rain and record cold temps for May,
today was a beautiful day.
I thought I'd Celebrate by making a card for Double Trouble Challenge #85. This is only a one week challenge because it is the 5th Monday of the month. And because it is the 5th Monday of the month, the theme is
Something, Anything, Everything and Optional YoYo Fun.
After very careful and in depth research, I decided to let the Pinwheel Yo-Yo trick be the inspiration for my card. To make it extra fun, I made a Yo-Yo Spinner card. Pull the little blue star and the pinwheel spins like a yo-yo. Wind the string back up to do it again and again.
Pinwheel stamps are from CTMH.
Challenges:
Through the Craft Room Door Week of May 25th - AG
Retro Rubber Challenge #159 - AG (These stamps are about 8 years old.)
