Gold Christmas Slimline Card

Posted on November 22, 2020November 22, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

This is a card I made for Christmas many years ago (before slimline cards were as popular as they are now), I made about 40 of them and sent them to family and friends, I found this one in a box of old cards so I thought I would share. I made it well before I started blogging so I don’t have photos of the process but I am describing it as best as I can.

It’s a Girl- Shaker card -C4C562

Posted on November 20, 2020November 20, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

I’m excited to share this card, it’s a little late but I made it for my FIRST grandchild, I wanted it to be special and I just got so stuck in my brain that I had a hard getting this started. Sooooo when I was coming up with a card for this challenge I used it to get my self rolling on this baby card. This weeks challenge is a design challenge, so I used the following image to inspire me on this card front. I did change the square for a circle but other wise I think I kept it pretty close to the image.

This is the image……

And this is what I came up with…..

So today I have special blanket and pillow set that I made especially for my very first granddaughter, I have made this type of polar fleece knot blanket before, but this time I wanted it to be extra special so I decided to cross stitch a special message.

Pickle Party -C4C561

Posted on November 13, 2020November 13, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

The thing I love most about being part of the Crazy4Challenges design team is I am challenged to make cards that I might not have ever made. This card is a prime example. If someone would have said that I would make a Pickle themed card AND draw cut and colour my own pickles I would have said that it was probably not likely BUT guess what, not only did I do that I made it into a green monochromatic interactive card 🥒🤯. Apparently today (Nov 14) is PICKLE DAY so the challenge was to make a card inspired by pickles, either by including a pickle, or food that goes with pickles, use the colour green, or incorporate a pickled theme sentiment. I hit most of the marks with this one.

Over the Rainbow Birthday card

Posted on November 8, 2020November 9, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

Every once in a while I get excited about how a card turned out, and I have to say I am pretty happy with this one. I made this card especially for my niece and I’m finally able to share it. At first I was stumped as to what to make her as I generally go a little over the top when making cards for her and her brother (His last card) But I was inspired by a Shaker Card that I made a few months ago and I wanted to change it up a bit make it bigger and better. And this is what I came up with.
