I wanted to demonstrate as many different ways to use my thinliit dies as I could. So in addition to finished samples, I made these to show different options.
The Peekaboo Peach sample was made using a pony bead - you know those cheap little beads that come in all colors? I didn't know that was what they were called but they make a lighter weight card if that concerns you. Great idea Kathy Jo! I did find the weight of the pennies made the spinner glide and spin better.
For the Melon Mambo card, I hung the thinliit off the end of the Big Shot platform so it wouldn't cut. And I stopped cranking before it was through so I could make a shorter track.
These two were a fun way to vary the standard circle track. On the Elmerald Envy card I didn't put the center circle back in and the penny still stayed on the track. Thanks Cheryl for the idea! And on one of my favorites, I added two strips to the underside to make space for two spinners.
Then of course, you can use the thinlits as they were intended.
