Hi, everyone! This week's Sketch Challenge is perfect for a spinner card (I flipped the sketch horizontally to give my fishy room to fly). I began by cutting a white panel with the Divinity Designs Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies, sponged the water over a piece of scratch paper and sponged the clouds over a template cut with the Clouds and Raindrops Dies. The spinner channel was cut with a flagpole die from the now retired 'Pennants Dies' set, cutting one half at a time using the Die Re-sizing Technique, so that both ends of the slot would be square. The bass and sentiment are from the 'Great Catch' Stamp/Die Duos set; the bass was watercolored and a clear glaze pen was used over the eye. The panel was popped up with foam tape and the spinning mechanism was created with a penny and foam tape, attached to the fish from the back side of the panel. When tilted from side to side, the fish will spin. The Grass Hill Die and Grass Border Die were used to finish the scene. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

Amazing!! You are so clever to see the sketch as a potential spinner card. Wonderfully done. Love the flying/spinning fish. The sentiment is terrific. Awesome card!! TFS

I've never tried a spinner card either though I have a fish image that would work and a recipient who would appreciate it. Into my favourite this beauty goes for future consideration! Love your background and the beautifully coloured fish!
