Default Dental Floss

I'm looking to make a card with dental floss, I think it's called a spinner card, not the one with pennies.

The how to's I am looking for is the one with floss; a part of the card spins around on the floss,


--Don't know if I'm explaning this right i looked it up, and I got this page can't be displayed. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I made one last year around St. Patrick's Day - look here. There are many ways to make them, and while I didn't use dental floss, but regular sewing thread, I think it's basically the same as what you are describing. I didn't use stamped images for the "hangie-down" parts, but instead used stickers that I already had with the thread sandwiched between the images. HTH

Pretty card, Lynn!

I use thin rubber string for my 'spinner cards' (found in the bead isle of craft stores). I wind up the butterflies before closing the card and when you open it, the butterfly spins. I will be curious to know if floss works the same as the rubber string.

Here is a link to one I made (more views in my gallery), and you can check my very first SCS upload to see one of my first ever made.

Wow - spectacular butter fly card...so very pretty. I'm sure there are many things to use to hang your "danglies"...it will be interesting to see what others use.
Thanks for sharing your card!
