Whirly Bird Spinner Card Tutorial

The Whirly Bird Wheel Spinner card is as fun to say as it is to play! Spin the wheel to reveal the message "Hey Chick, let's celebrate you...". For this card I used the Stampin' Blends markers to color the image. I switched up the window to the circle cut out and covered the brad with the scalloped circle frame. Both of these dies are in the Give It a Whirl Die set. NOTE: The Stampin Up Hey Chick bundle is retiring! The Hey Birthday Chick will still be available, but if you want the set of 2 bundles be sure to grab your Hey Chick before June 30 (if they last that long).  Click here for more details on the retiring list and the sale.
