Happy Birthday Cookie card

Yayyyyyy today is the day. Today is Karen Burnistons sneak peek for her June collection, and to say I have been having soooooo much fun with this release would be an understatement. I hope you all love it as much as I do.

I have been having so much fun with these new dies, I can’t decide which card to post first. As I’m writing this blog post this card is in the running. It is a fun mix of new and previously released dies, and if you like to bake, or have a baking loved one this set is a must. I also will explain how I made some of the other elements that I created to complete the scene.

Rainbow Balloons Birthday

Well, I got the card done by the deadline but the blog post took a couple of extra days. I’ve been busy busy busy making cards for the Karen Burniston June Release but I was able to sneak in a Craft Roulette card

Here are this week’s parameters ⬇️

I took me a bit to wrap my brain about how I was going to meet the parameters but then it just clicked, and this is what I came up with.

Small Bag- the little hand bad the girl gnome is holding

Rainbow colours- throughout the card

Wheel- the greeting turns on the yellow wheel revealing 4 different messages

Shimmer- I used Wink of Stella to add glimmer to all the balloons and the girl gnomes.

Backyard Buddies Birthday Card

There is a bit of a benefit when some of your family doesn’t follow your blog or your social media ( or anything on the internet ), you can post their birthday card before their birthday 😜 sshhhhh

This weeks Craft Roulette Parameters weren’t too difficult, so I decided to give myself a couple extra challenges, 1 was to make a pop-up card that works with the rest of the parameters, and 2 was to make it masculine. CR parameters ⬇️

One of the challenges for me was to find patterned paper that was the colour of “Flowering Fields” but could still be used on a masculine card. The colours on the stripes look like they were painted on.

Squirrel Friends Birthday card

Yeah I’m a little late this week, my day job is cutting into my craft time, if you’ve been following you’d see that I have been playing along with Craft Roulette, it is quite fun and sometimes following the parameters is quite a challenge, but so worth it when a fun and unique card comes out of it. This weeks parameters are…..

My card of choice is “pop up” , I used strawberry fields colours, my bench is my chair, and I used yellow plaid. Here is my card.

Crafty Friend Birthday Card

I am sooo bummed, I just did this blog, the entire thing, was in the very last steps and for some reason my app closed and I lost it all 😢 so here I go again. I really like how this colour combo works together. I’m not typically a yellow/orange person but I really like how these colours pop against the blue. I’ve been having so much fun with Craft Roulette, so I thought I’d play again. This weeks parameters were to have a “card on a card”, “Sky view” colours, it had to have a “table” (this one almost got me) end it had to have white dots or spots. So I went with a messy craft table, with a slimline card sitting on top (bonus challenge, if you know me if there is a card on my messy table it would be a pop up card, so I made a pop up card for my mini card) The colours I chose remind me of a sunset. And the flowers all have little white dots and the gems look like white dots against the blue. This card design is based on a Valentine card that Karen Burniston made a few years ago.
