Today I am sharing another of my Christmas Spinning Puzzle Cards Series focusing on flower and circle nesting dies to make interactive poinsettia and wreath Christmas cards with minimal supplies. Today's video is about ways you could batch make, keep dimension down for cheaper postage, and using up scraps. These ideas could easily be used to make birthday, thank you, hello, etc. cards as well.
I won't be focusing on the spinning puzzle assembly so much, so if you've never seen this type of card and want a full tutorial on how to make a flower Spinning Puzzle Card, please head to this video and check out the flower card first:
If you want to see more detail on how to hide your brad in the centre of your images, please check out the first video in my Christmas Spinning Puzzle series here:
