~Leafy Pinwheel~



I want to thank all the sweet bloggers who stopped by and commented on my girls' cards~you rock!


If you haven't seen the cards, here they are: Amanda's, Shelby's, and Mallory's.

I'm so proud of my girlies~it was fun to craft and bond!




I had so much fun yesterday, I didn't get a chance to post my
 fall pinwheel card.





I used my Sweet n' Sassy leaf dies on some beautiful paper that came with my Eclectic Paperie order~thank you Kim!






I folded each leaf in for a pinwheel effect.

Such a cool, somewhat unconventional pinwheel! You can really see the movement here!
