A Spinner Card...

Last night I was playing and trying to come up with a swap card that uses punches. Well, I must say that I love this card...however, I don't think I will use it for the swap because of how long it too to make. :) So, since I'm not using it, I thought I would show it to you.

This is a spinner card and so the flower is glued to some pennies and then when you tilt the card back and forth the flower spins. It is really a fun card.
To make the polka dots, I used my Polka Dot background stamp, inked it up with Versamark and then after I stamped it on the black cardstock I poured white embossing power onto it and heated it up. I love it. :) Also, I used one of our new, fun 5/16" Jumbo Brads.
If you have any questions, let me know! :)
What I used:
Stamps: Petal Pizzazz, Polka Dot, Really Retro
Ink: Versamark, Basic Black, Riding Hood Red, Pumpkin Pie, Summer Sun, Kiwi Kiss
Cardstock: Kraft, Whisper White, Basic Black
Accessories: Word Window Punch, White Embossing Powder, Heat Gun, Pennies, Dimensionals, 5/16" Jumbo Silver Brad
