Outlined Occassions Pin Wheel

Another monochromatic card! Are you sick of them yet? I will tell you the reason behind them. I went away over the holidays and could only take a few supplies so i chose to take some In Colour Designer Series Paper, In Colour ink and markers and matching card stock. That way i knew i had co-ordinating colours.
This is a pin wheel card that i made while experimenting with cards for the ESAD blog hop. They are very easy, you just fold a strip of paper and make into a circle. The Button embosslits are perfect for the centre of the pinwheel.
This one is made using the Outlined Occassions Sale-A Bration stamp set. You can get this for FREE when you spend $100 in product! I just love this time of yeat.
