Today is the next Card Hoppin' Video Hop over on YouTube and our April theme is "Complementary Colors" and the technique is "Easel or Spinner Card." I made a background earlier this month with blue and orange that I was planning to use for this project and you can see that post and video here! I also decided to pick Spinner Card as my project as I had a die set called the Magic Wheel from Whimsy Stamps that was sitting in my crafty stash unused.

In my video I walk through how I die cut my stenciled design and created my background as well as how I assembled my Magic Wheel die cuts. As I discuss in my video today, I definitely had some trouble with this die set. I had watched an assembly video prior to using it myself, but I made two Magic Wheels and the first one just completely did not work. I was able to salvage my card and my second Magic Wheel was much better and I share that one in my video. But I think the embossing powder made the wheel a bit hard to use.
Have you used this die before? Let me know your tips and tricks! I definitely need to use it again in the future and maybe try something a little more simple to really give a good review. Be sure to watch the video over on YouTube so you can click the hop hashtag and see all of the inspiration from other crafters on this hop!
