A Colorful Pinwheel

I managed to get my card posted in time for the Play Date Cafe Challenge #47.  Somehow I always let the deadline pass before I get my entry posted This challenge focuses on the colors black, white, red, turqoise, and green.     I decided to make a pinwheel card using all these colors.

At first I wasn't sure of what I wanted to do to use so many colors.    The pinwheel makes a cheerful-looking card and appears more complicated than it really is.

This a very easy card to make especially if you have the need to make a number of cards just alike.

After I posted this I realized that it also qualifies for Gingersnap Creations' Punches Challenge.   All the squares and the flower center were made with punches.

Black-White with a Little Green

Black and White with a Little Green is the color combination for the Pay Date Cafe Challenge this week. When I saw what the colors were supposed to be I knew exactly what I wanted to create. This card uses the Pinwheel technique, one of the Technique Junkies techniques for August.
