Bee Spinner Card
Spinner Cards are easy to create, yet add that WOW! factor to your card-making.
I paired the bee made using the Ladybug Punch with Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper and the greeting from the stamp set Just My Type.

Here’s How:
1. Create the bee:
-Cut 3 strips of Crushed Curry card stock 1/4″-1/2″ wide and 3″ long. Attach the strips to a piece of Early Espresso card stock. Punch using the Ladybug Punch to create the bee. Punch the wings out of Vellum card stock and attach them to the bee body using a small amount of glue.
2. Create the Spinner Card:
-Cut a piece of Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper measuring 4″ x 2 3/4″. Cut or punch a slit in the DSP to create the track for the spinner piece. I used my retired Word Window Punch.
-Stamp flowers from Hello Ladybug using Early Espresso ink.
-Attach strips of Foam Adhesive Strips to the back side of the DSP. Remove the adhesive backing on the strips and attach the DSP to an Early Espresso mat.
-Layer two pennies using a Dimensional in between. Attach the bee to the top penny using a Dimensional.
3. Stamp greeting from Just My Type on a Lemon Lolly card front using Early Espresso ink. I did not want “and rainbows” from the greeting, so I covered it with a piece of washi tape, inked it, removed the tape, and stamped. Don’t forget to remove the tape before stamping!
4. Attach the spinner piece to the Lemon Lolly card front.
5. Slip pennies into the spinner track. One penny is on the back side of the track, the other inside the track. The bee should now move and spin along the track.
6. Attach Rhinestone Jewels on the flower centers and in the center of the wings, hiding any glue that shows on the Vellum.
