What is a Volvelle? 

A Volvelle is an interactive paper design made of rotating layers that reveal different images or information as the wheel turns. While the concept has been around for centuries, I wanted to give it a modern twist by turning it into a meaningful keepsake you can create with your Cricut. It's a little unexpected, a little nostalgic, and a beautiful way to tell your story in a way your guests have probably never seen before.
