I created a card with the idea of giving the impression of the ball drop that happens in New York on New Years Eve. I wanted to use the SPINNER card technique. Here is what I did:
I used the Fabulous Flowers stamp to make the ball, stamping it on white whisper and embossing with gold detail. Then I filled in the white areas with glitter pen.
I used my cutter board to create the hold in the middle for the spinner since I don't have the window hold punch....and that worked ok. The mount was on glitter card stock and I added some more glitter stickers to fake a fireworks background.
I used my "Rain" stamp upside down to create the fireworks effect. Filling in the drops with silver glitter pen. And on the mounted spinner card I used cardstock that had a diamondy effect in the paper.
It turned out ok but it didn't seem to work well standing up - but it spins kewl held horizontally... :( you can see it here:

Any ideas on how to improve this idea so that the theme could work with a spinner card?
