Default Spinner card Trouble - PLEASE HELP!

Hi everyone,

I have just made a spinner card as per the instructions on scs, only difference being I used my word window punch to cut the slit for the spinny bit.
Anyways, before I mounted the cardstock that contains the spinner onto the base card, it spun perfecting. But now that its on the base card, it spins, but not as freely! I want to teach this at my next workshop but want to have it perfect before the girls try it. Any tips for me?

Did you use 2 dimensionals on top of one another to mount to the base card? That's my only thought. That would give it enough room to spin freely.

1. I put a stampin' dimensional above and below the middle area of the punched slot.

2. Slide and roll the spinner across the slot several times to get rid of some of the stickiness. It should loosen up the more you play around with it.

3. If it still sticks, then try adding an extra stampin' dimensional to each corner (doubling the thickness) the next time you mount the top to the base.

HTH! It's such a fun "wow" card to demo!
