Here are spinner cards I made for my son Jonathan's coaches at the end of the soccer season. I punched out the balls from "
Sporty Accessories" with a 1" circle punch and made the spinner with the
SU! Word W
indow punch.

His team was the "Y
ellow Jackets" and they had those beautiful shimmery yellow jerseys so I made the stars, jersey from "
Just So Sporty" and card base from
Paper Temptress Gold Metallic paper, these
metallic papers are GREAT for sports jerseys! (and are on sale this month!) I stamped "#1" and "Thank U Coach" from the same set and drew some wrinkles
around the jersey outline with a yellow
Koh-i Noor to give them some depth.
TIP: Use Staz-On Ink with these metallic papers , some inks are slow to dry on this specialty finish and can smear or not show up as well, but Staz-On dries instantly!
For a spinner card, you need two pennies and two
pop dots, the stack
goes in this order: stamped image, pop dot, penny,
pop dot, punched slot, penny!
Here it is above in action! :) Yup, that's what I sound like (when I'm cheering, that is, but not nearly as loud as I would at the actual game!) ;)
Hope you got a kick out of this! Blog candy coming up!! :)
