The color didn't turn out very well on this card. The Marina Mist looks right but the Basic Gray kind of looks like Chocolate Chip. Though I think that color would work well too!
I used the Pinwheel Technique on this card. You can find the instructions for it here. The size squares I used here are 1-3/8" for the decorative paper and 1-5/8" for the Marina Mist. Now as you can see, the words on the decorative paper are turned a bit on my card. Well, that's because I didn't think about how the pinwheel was going to fit on the base of the card before I began making the squares. I just wanted to make sure I had the pinwheel large enough to put the car in the center. Turning the pinwheel did make it fit on the card though. I probably should have used the strip decorative paper instead of the words and then it wouldn't have mattered how it was turned. I still like how it turned out, even with the words being turned.
The "Happy Birthday" was from the "Crazy about You" set.
This was a pretty easy card to make. It took a few minutes to assemble the pinwheel but other than that it went together really fast.
