  • Cut a piece of Basic Black at 4¼” x 6¾".  On the long side, score at 1". 2", 3", and 4"
  • Cut 3 additional pieces of Basic Black at 4¼” x 2¾”

  • Cut 2 pieces of the pretty flowers from the Favored Flowers DSP 4" x 2½"
  • Cut 4 coordinating pieces from the Favored Flowers DSP 4" x 1½"
  • Cut a piece of wax paper about 1½" x 5½"
  • All of your cut pieces should now look like this with your 2 white pieces and the 2 flower pieces setting on the black CS
  • On the long Black CS piece, fold the four score marks then fold them in making a square.  Add adhesive to the 1" end piece and adhere making the square with the first pinwheel attached.  If using the liquid glue, place the wax paper in the square tube, as a precaution to protect any glue that might cause the card to get stuck and not open freely.
  • Lay the square down with the extended black pinwheel piece pointing up from the back.  Add adhesive to the side of the square facing up then adhere the 2nd  pinwheel piece.
  • Turn 90˚ and repeat the process above for the 3rd Pinwheel piece.
  • Turn 90˚ and repeat the process above for the 4th Pinwheel piece.
  • Die cut the Basic White CS 4" x 2½” using the decorative die from the Blooming Happiness Die.
  • Die cut a Basic Black scrap piece using the rectangle die from the Something Fancy Dies.
  • Stamp a small greeting on Basic White CS and Fuzzy trim to adhere to the die cut Black rectangle, add Dimensionals and adhere to the White embossed piece. 
  • On the other Basic White CS 4" x 2½” add your greeting and salutation.
  • Now to decorate the 4 black pinwheels.
  • Adhere the White Embossed piece to one of the black pinwheels and the coordinating piece on the left side.
  • On the next pinwheel, adhere one of the large Flowers pieces and the coordinating piece on the left side.
  • On the next pinwheel, adhere your stamped greeting signature piece and the coordinating piece on the left side.

  • On the last pinwheel, adhere the other large Flowers piece and the coordinating piece on the left side.
  • This card will lay flat so it will fit in an envelope.
