SPINNER CARD - My first post


Hi all , this is my first post . I never thought I would start a blog until I spoke with Dr.Sonia , who is a well known blogger, Whose works made me to try paper crafts. Her encouraging words  made me to start a blog the very next second I spoke to her. Thank u mam. Am very much new to this blogland and cardmaking .  Today I will share the making  of a simple card I saw in the net long back.

SPINNER CARD



Things needed
1. Card stock
2. Pattern paper
3. Double sided foam tape
4. Compass or anything in round shape
5. Coins

Create base of the card by gluing pattern paper over a piece of  card stock.

Select another piece of card stock slightly smaller than the patterned paper , draw a circle and cut out like shown below. Save the center part that u will get while cutting 

Reduce the radius of the center part that u got .



 
 Now is the arranging part. U can easily guess by seeing the last picture. Use double sided foam tape for the centre round also which gives gap for the coin sandwich to rotate. Insert the coin in the track created to rotate


I actually don't know anything about blogging. I Welcome suggestions and comments which will be very much helpful for me. 


Linking this post to lulupu challenge - Try something new! The whole mechanism and technique I used here is new to me and this is my first try at spinner cards

Sending this to marvelous magnolia challenge
