Pinwheel Polaroid (Another self-CASE)

I'm really starting to enjoy challenging myself by imagining two different spins on a card while I'm designing, and doing to the cutting, etc. for both at once... saves time, rather than going back to the idea later and getting all the same tools out again and measuring again, and it feels like a "BOGO" when I have two totally different (although, very similar) cards after one sitdown :)

For this one, I used the classic white Polaroid frame with the black, undeveloped background, and added just the color elements for a big POP! I swapped out the flowers for a pinwheel, the scallops for the clouds and gave it a bright sentiment to add a last splash of bold.



Challenges I used:

Craft Project Central - (see sketch below)
Seize the Birthday
Ruby's Rainbow - Happy Birthday
The Card Concept - Create a Birthday Card (with the Clean and Layered style)
