Monochromatic Label Charm Birthday card

Posted on February 17, 2023February 26, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

Here today with another NEW release dieset, no, not the Label Charm, that was a previous release, not the Big Birthday charms, have you figured it out yet. It’s the new Labels crosshatch from the New Rectangles and Labels Crosshatch die set. The new labels stack beautifully with the labels from the Label Charm Pop up set AND we now have a frame to go around the front window which gives the card front that finished look. I was pretty excited when I saw it. It is definitely a must-have if you already own the Label Charm set, plus the rectangles in the new set were made to fit 5” x 7” cards. I have used these so much already, you will have to keep your eyes open in upcoming posts.

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.

Water Colour Waterfall Card

Posted on January 30, 2023January 29, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

Years ago, like 2006ish I made my first waterfall card. I was part of a Stampin Up group and it was taught to us in a class, I remember thinking it was so fun making this interactive card BUT, all the pieces were cut and scored with a trimmer, and the measurements had to be just right (the measurements for that card had very small flaps) or it wouldn’t flip. So as fun as I thought it was I never made another one, with a trimmer anyway. I’ve made a few using Karen Burnistons Frame Pull Pop up, but that also needs some alterations. This is my first time using Karen Burnistons Waterfall Card die set and this set definitely makes it way easier. I made this card in one evening.

Landscape Rectangle Accordion Shaker card

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……

Triple Surprise Cube Slider Birthday Box

Posted on November 29, 2022December 5, 2022 by mymessycraftroom5

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.
