BY "GEORGE" I'VE GOT IT...SPINNER CARD!!!

opened up with flower closing up The "base" for this spinner card is made with GBS. It will work in a card 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" or larger. This is my mock up just to check everything out. Below, I've marked the score lines with red and blue ink and added measurements to help get the placement right. IT WORKS THOUGH...YIPPEE! I'm adding links here to the assembly instructions. I used these instructions, but found it more helpful to adhere the right side and then fold everything up. It allowed me to make sure it's all in place. Then I adhered the left side by closing the open card over the folded base. You really need powerful adhesive. Mine wasn't quite strong enough, but I'll get something tomorrow. You also should use heavyweight cardstock for the card. I used a lighter weight for the base and it works fine, but light weight on the card just isn't quite strong enough. http://karenburniston.typepad.com/.a/6a00d834524f1f69e2011168ccc991970c-popup http://www.sizzix.com/images/docs/656029_Plat_Spin_3D.pdf REMEMBER TO CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR A LARGER VIEW. scorlines and measurements how it folds up...it's hard to show how it looks when it's folded
