Ice Skating Reveal Wheel

Welcome back to my ramblings ... My granddaughter's 6th birthday was coming up and I wanted to make her a special birthday card.  She recently started taking figure skating classes and really loving it.  That brought to mind the Mice on Ice stamp set from Lawn Fawn.  I bought the stamp set because those mice are so darn cute ... and the ice skating, of course, since I love winter and most winter activities.  BUT I hadn't used them in a card yet so this was the perfect opportunity.  I also wanted to add some sort of interactive element to the card and remembered the Reveal Wheel dies I have rarely, if ever, used.  So there you go, the thought process.  😁 I kept thinking the mice should be on a frozen pond or lake, that's where I'd prefer to ice skate, but that's not where figure skating is taught so I looked at a lot of cartoon hockey rinks to figure out how to draw one on this card AND make the reveal wheel element work.  I think I figured it out...
