Paper Windmills
By Charlotte King
MATERIALS REQUIRED:
2 x Mini Pic Sheets: MP035 Swirls.
Centura Pearl Card:
CNT129C Pea Green, CNT134C Dark Chocolate.
Gold Label Peel-Offs: XL715U-01 Wording.
Pink Mini Brads: BRA043.
Pair of Compasses.
Scissors.
Craft Knife, Cutting Mat and Ruler.
Mini Fixers: ADH18 & Double Sided Tape: ADH13.
Card Mount: SF06C-134 Dark Chocolate.
TO MAKE THE CARD:
Cut out all 16 small squares on one mini picture
sheet. Use a craft knife and ruler for this to keep the
cuts nice and straight and use the cutting marks
around the edge to help keep them all the correct
size. The colour of the finished windmill depends on
how you begin the folding.

5. Cut down the centre between the two folded sides
of the shape using a pair of scissors. Take care not to
cut the folded edges that meet along the centre line.
6. Place the blue half as shown and fold the top, blue
triangle back on itself aligning the left edges to make
the dart shape shown.
7. Place the yellow/green
half as shown and fold
the top, yellow triangle
back on itself aligning
the right edges to make
the dart shape shown.
Fold all sixteen small
squares in this way, and
you will have a set of
16 blue/mauve darts to
make the blue wheel, and
a set of 16 orange/red
darts to make the orange
wheel. Keep these two
sets aside for later.
8. Cut the 16 small squares from the 2nd sheet and
fold in the same way, but begin with the yellow sec-
tion of the square at the bottom ready to fold.

1. Place the square face down and diagonally as
shown with the pink corner at the bottom.
2. Bring the pink corner up and fold along the centre
of the diagonal square.

3. Fold the left side across as shown matching the
point to the centre point.
4. Do the same with the right side.

You now have two more sets of 16 shapes, which will make the green
and red wheels.
As you assemble the wheels you will notice that one half of each
colour-pair will go clockwise and one anti-clockwise because
they were cut from opposite sides of the square at step 5.

9a. Assemble the blue wheel as follows. Place one
dart as shown and add a small piece of double
sided tape over the mauve part.
9b. Place the 2nd piece over the1st, with the blue
over the mauve area and matching the blue patterns
as shown. Add a small square of double sided
tape to the mauve part of the second piece.
9c. Add the next piece in the same way
and add the tape as before.
10. Work round the circle
with all 16 pieces in the
same way, adding tape
to each mauve piece. As
you work, the windmill
will make a slightly
cupped shape. Tuck the
last mauve edge under
the first piece and stick
in place.

Stick the green panel to the front of the card, mat-
ching the apertures.
Make a small slot in the centre of the brown circle
cut from the card front. Push a pink brad through the
very centre of the green windmill then through the
slot and bend the prongs out.
Fold the card closed and stick the green windmill
to the back panel through the aperture to ensure they
line up properly.
Place a brad through the centre of the orange
windmill and bend the prongs out. Stick this wheel in
the centre of the circle cut through the green card.
Cut 2 squares of brown card at 55mm, cut a small
slot in the centre of each and mount the other two
windmills using brads. Use sticky fixers to mount
these into place on the card.
Use the wording strips to add the greeting as
shown in the main photo. Place the centre of each
strip first, positioning a ‘happy’ on the top centre and
‘birthday’ on the bottom centre.
Make the other 3 circles in the same way. You will
need to reverse the direction (work anti-clockwise)
for the orange and green wheels as shown above.
Cut the green card to 135mm x 135mm, and on the
white side, use the compasses to draw a 63mm circle
in two diagonally opposite corners, place the point
of the compass 38mm from the edges. Carefully cut
out these circles to leave two apertures.
Place the card face down, add the green panel
face down on the back of the front panel with one of
the apertures positioned top left, as you look at it.
Make sure the panel is centrally positioned and care-
fully draw around the inside of the top left aperture.
Carefully cut a little inside the pencil line to make
an aperture in the card panel so the aperture is a
couple of millimetres smaller than the one on the
green card. You will be using both the circle and the
aperture so take extra care with your cutting.
VARIATION:
Once you’ve made the first card, you will have all
the large squares left, I used these to make a fabu-
lously deep windmill. To do this work through to step
4. Leave out 5 (i.e. don’t cut in half), then fold the left
triangle back on itself as described in step 6. Assem-
ble the segments as for the first windmills.
This wheel is mounted onto a springfold card using
the large pattern panels fron the mini pic sheets be-
hind the main design and underneath to decorate the
base of the card.
