Landscape Rectangle Accordion Shaker card

Posted on January 23, 2023January 28, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

I have a bright and sparkly card this week. I needed a special card for my sister and I want to find a way to make it a bit extra sooooo I decided to add a few windows and and add a shaker element to the back panel and it turned out better than I thought. The bright colours were chosen because the colours matched a package of sequins I had recently purchase. This is what I came up with……

All the fun is in the reveal, to see this card in action please check out my FACEBOOK page, feel free to join if you would like to share your own crafty creations. You can also see a video of this card on my INSTAGRAM page.

Ever since I got the Paper Frames die set I wanted to work out how to have 2 of them in a slimline card. I am quite pleased with the results.

Triple Surprise Cube Slider Birthday Box

IIIITTTTT’S KAREN BURNISTONS SNEAK PEAK WEEK 🤩 and I have to say there are some pretty fun dies sets with this release, I wasn’t even sure what to start with.

I thought these 2 sets together would make a great alternative to a birthday card, I made three coordinating Surprise Cubes which fit perfectly inside the new Slider box. I left one side of each cube blank so there are places to write birthday greetings and this is what I came up with. This is so fun, when you open the box the cubes fly out. Lol.

Balloon Birthday Bouquet

Sorry I’ve been MIA, I have had a crazy month. But I am pretty excited to share this card. When I originally saw this card from Sandy Diller I knew I just had to give it a go. Sandy made it as a mini slimline card but I wanted to go bigger. If you check out Sandy’s card she has a great video and she explains how to alter the mechanism used so it would fit in a mini slimline. I didn’t have to alter the shape like she did because I made my card 6” x 6”. Both cards have a great balloon surprise when you open the card.

Slimline Label Charm Accordion card

Posted on October 24, 2022October 24, 2022 by mymessycraftroom5

When I first receive my Label Charm Pop-up dieset, the wheels in my brain started turning trying to plan a longer accordion version. I did make a different version (I’ll post a photo at the bottom of this post) but I changed it sooo many times when making it that my photos would make the tutorial too confusing. I came up with this version when I was trying to make an extra special card for my niece.
