http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/dianevandergalien/blog?directBlogUrl=%2Fblog%2F3948%2Fentry%2Fphoto_tutorial_pinwheels

Pinwheels are really in right now- so decided it was time to give them a try-

Supplies needed-
Pattern paper- any size square- using summer smooches dsp
boho blossom punch- matching card stock
1 1/4 circle punch
sticky stripe, snail adhesive
paper piercer
paper snips
brad
lollipop stick
Simply scored scoring tool with diagonal plate

Here I have a 3 in square- use the diagonal scoring tool- score at 0 on both sides

Here I also scored a 2 1/2 in square-
Now use paper snips and cut on diagonal - stop about 1/2 inch  before the middle point

On each right side triangle corner add snail adhesive

Bring right side up and 1/8 past the middle-  bring up all four sides

Punch a boho blossom flower to add to the middle- attach with snail
Punch with paper piecer to attach brad- will hold pinwheel together

Now to attach your lollipop stick- I use sticky stripe
Add sticky stripe to your stick
Punch out a 1 1/4 cricle in matching cardstock- add sticky stripe- I found this holds the best

Attach stick to back side of faux pinwheel

Attache the 1 1/4 circle to finish the back side of the pinwheel-
Now you are ready to attach to your project!!!

I attached my pinwheel to a gift bag- What a fun summer birthday package!!!
The pinwheel on the gift card holder I attached with a  brad to the belly band- no sticky stripe needed!!!
So go give the pinwheels a try- They also make great Bouquets- Have a Great week!!!
Come back on Tuesday July 3  for a Great Pinwheel Bouquet for Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge!!!
Happy Stamping, Diane
