Pinwheel ornament

Inspired by Lisa Zappa's tutorial (here) I made this little pinwheel ornament for a challenge with the theme A Song in the Air.

The border is stamped with the music and small pennant stamps from the Artsy Banners set and I used the triangles to guide my score lines rather than measuring out on my scoring tool as Lisa does in her tutorial. Robins about to burst into song keep with the musical theme and make this a quick and easy project as it's a printed image so no tricky colouring involved!

Stamps:
Artsy Banners (Clear Art Stamps by Crafty Secrets)

Paper:
Ivory
Christmas Creative Scraps (Heartwarming Vintage by Crafty Secrets)

Ink:
Tim Holtz Distress ink by Ranger (Vintage Photo)
Versafine by Tsukineko (Onyx Black)

Other:
Silk ribbon
Copper jingle bells
Squeeze punch by Fiskars (large circle)
Circle cutter by Fiskars
Scor-It
Gold thread


Thanks for stopping by!

How beautiful, Joanne! Love this ornament--and that bird image is one of my favorites.

I hope you're having a wonderful day, my friend, and a lovely Christmas time...

No tricky colouring but there's tricky folds and stamping involved!
