Hi Patty, I was so happy to catch your live.. I think on my end of the world ,lol, it was at 2:00. I’m usually home by that time but anyways I love these cards and I want to make some of these. That was the first I heard of them and it looked pretty easy…Thanks for giving us the dimensions for the other size cards. I think your penguin card was absolutely adorable… Thanks for you loves and videos

the pinwheel tower card is awesome and so are the instruction thanks foe sharing
Great video! I really enjoyed it!
I just watched your video making the pinwheel with the penguin paper and I Loved how you talked and demonstrated your thought process for making this card Patty. That is super helpful! I will definitely be making this. Thank You so much for your video and all the measurements.
I just watched your video on the pinwheel tower card and am eager
to try my hand at making this card. I really appreciate your sharing
your thought process in creating this adorable card. I don’t think I
would have thought of using paper clips — great idea. Thank you,
Patty, for the video and providing the measurements.
You make things easier then most thank you
I would like to follow some live YouTube how do I subscribe?
Hi Jane, so kind of you, thank you!! I’ve been away on my $2million celebration trip to Stampin’ Up! so I apologize for the delay, but you can see my videos and subscribe to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/pattystamps/videos
Thank you for giving the measurements. I saw your other pinwheel card too. Both of your cards are lovely. I found an A2 template which I made bigger in my graphic program (4 3/4 tall) but, I wasn’t sure of the relation of size and envelope. Going to watch your video and hopefully improve my skills and then try the 5 x 7 one.
Really loved the way you did this card. Doing it my way (I made the card structure first) was so fiddly! Your method with paper lips is a brilliant idea. Thank you very much.
