Here’s another sneak peek tower pinwheel card using products from the soon to be launched July to December 2021 mini. Today’s card will fit in a C6 envelop. If you love penguins, you’ll love the new Penguin Place stamp set. It also has a Penguin Builder punch and there are papers in the Sale-a-bration brochure which you can earn for free subject to a qualifying order excluding shipping.
If you’re new to Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration is a biannual event. The second Sale-a-bration period will run from 3 August to 30 September 2021. For a limited time, customers who spend £45 or multiples of £45 on product excluding shipping, will be able to choose a free product from the Sale-a-bration brochure. These can be stamp sets, dies, or patterned paper.
The pattern paper I used for my card is actually a Sale-a-bration item. I discovered that you can also punch out some of the penguins in the pattern paper! How cool is that?
Four-pronged Tower Pinwheel card
Tower Pinwheel cards are so easy to make. You create a central column. A four prong Tower Pinwheel means the column is square. Card stock panels are adhered to each of the sides of the column creating this radial/pinwheel effect.
I love the new Merry Melody 3D embossing folder. The size of the panels restricted the number of penguins I could have in the Penguin Choir! To create the choral vibe, I cut a strip of the embossed music stave above and stamped “happy birthday to you”. This was achieved with partial stamping or masking as there wasn’t a stamp with the exact sentiment.
