Patriotic Pinwheel

Good morning friends!  I had some fun in my craft room the other day after I got my Taylored Expressions order.  TE always has fabulous patriotic selections this time of year!

One of the things I got was a pinwheel die.  It includes two sizes of pinwheels (I've used the larger of the two) and two sets of center adornments.  I have always thought pinwheels were cute but I've had no interest in hand making them in the past...enter the die which makes it SO easy!  The sentiment and stars on the bottom are from the new Betsy set.  I can't wait to stamp that Betsy image and color her up!  Anyway, I can't send this through the mail otherwise it will be smooshed but I can just hand it to someone if I'd like so that is what I'll do.  I've used the OWH sketch for the week with this card as well. 
And above is the inside.  I love using patterned paper inside when I can, the extra uumph is wonderful!

Well, that is it for craftiness for the day.  My Jon should be arriving into town today.  He's been driving from the midwest to here for the last couple of days for his brother's wedding.  That is exciting!
