Pinwheels and Mojo Monday

Posted on March 12, 2013 by Susan Horr

This weeks challenge card from Mojo Monday was a little harder for me because it has a lot of stuff going on! There are scallops, and circles, and brads, and ribbons and bows! Oh My! Now I know you don’t have to put everything in there but I like to get it at least close to the sketch. Here is this week’s challenge:

Mojo Monday 284

Here is my card:

Mojo Monday 284

At first, I had it all going but I just couldn’t bring myself to post my creation. Finally I took off the bow and it seemed to work a lot better for me.

I made the pinwheel using the new Sizzlets Pinwheel S Die. It makes it so much easier then cutting it out yourself. It does take a little practice but if you follow my directions from THIS post, it is much easier.

Make a Pinwheel With Fat Fingers

I don’t know about any of you, but I could not make the Pinwheel using the new Sizzlet. My fingers are just too fat or something. I tried to figure out an easier way to make them so I got out my Paper Piercing Tool. This worked great. Just line up the middle hole on your pinwheel with the tip og your piercer and then bring each corner and put it on top. Here are some pictures.
