Standing Pinwheel card

Hello,

I love the look of this Standing Pinwheel card and figured out the measurements to fit in a regular A2 envelope. Which version is your favorite? I think I'll do a Thank You one next.

Version 1:

Version 2:

Version 3:

This is the look from the top of the card.

Here's the video tutorial and below that are the measurements and a picture tutorial.

Card Base: 5-1/2" X 6" cardstock, scored 1", 2", 3", and 4"

Cardstock (3): 5-1/2" X 2-1/8"

DSP or cardstock (4): 5-1/4" X 2" I did two each and alternated on the flaps

Version 1:

Beauty of the Earth DSP

Crushed Curry card stock and Cinnamon Cider card stock

Merry Merlot for letters

Version 2:

Hand Penned DSP

Pool Party card stock and Mint Macaron cardstock

Garden Green for letters

Version 3:

Pattern Party DSP

Granny Apple Green card stock and Pale Papaya card stock

Poppy Parade for letters

Start with a piece of Crushed Curry measuring 5-1/2' x 6" and score it at 1", 2", 3", and 4".

And you adhere the first score part to the large part of the card so it creates a square and looks like this.

Then, you add one of these flaps to the remaining three sides of the square you created.

Here's the first flap adhered on.

And here it is with all three flaps on creating the "pinwheel" look.

Then, you adhere the (2) Beauty of the Earth DSP and the (2) Cinnamon Cider cardstock I used the Stitched Greenery die through and alternated them in the four flaps.

Then you put some of the Adhesive Sheet on the back of the Merry Merlot cardstock and cut out the letters for your message. I like that the die set has multiples of certain letters so I only have to run it through once. I first wanted to do "Happy Birthday to You" but decided to cut it down to "Happy Bday to You" instead.
