Babies 1st Christmas

Well, I’m a week behind again. This is a card I made for last week’s Craft Roulette challenge, and these are the parameters…

My belly band is a bit different. I added a rope band around the center panel. My cottage colours are a bit of a stretch, the wood and greens would be found in the trees, and the red and white could be a flag or tablecloth that could be found at a cottage. Santa is wearing a coat. I upcycled this card base, it was a card base left over from a class I taught over 10 years ago (I hang on to everything for ever) I also upcycled the thread I used, it was from a tag.

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.

1st Day Of School

I am so smitten with how this card turned out, and it just happens to be a Craft Roulette Card, this card is so stinkin cute in person. Besides the Craft Roulette parameters I gave myself another couple of challenges, 1- to use a dieset I haven’t used before, and 2 to use a dieset that I haven’t used in a while, these are the Craft Roulette parameters ⬇️

So the set I have never used before is the Charm Accordion, and the set I haven’t used in a while is the Book Worm dieset. The Craft Roulette parameters were met as follows, the book worms glasses are see-through, so are the blue charm frames, and really you can see through the card around the twisting panels. I think these colours could be found in the birds and flowers in the Jungle. Teachers will be found in a school, I have the white baker’s twine and green ribbon in a tangled twist on the front of the card.

Triple Flip Tea Time

Posted on February 27, 2024February 27, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

It seems like it’s been months, well I guess it has since I’ve been able to play Craft Roulettte . But I made sure to make some time this weekend because I do really enjoy playing along.

Here are this weeks parameters

This is how my card meets the parameters. I’ve used the Triple Flip dieset on the front and the Twist Flower dieset (a twist can be a flip right?) on the inside, and well this card has several folds within the mechanism. Main Street colours would be the grey sidewalk, the red bricks, and the other colours would be in the murals that we have in and around our Main Street. Walks would be the cat, cats walk. And I have hearts sprinkled through out and the teacup on the inside has a large heart.

Hello Birthday Bouquet

Posted on August 2, 2023August 2, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

Ok, so I’m a bit late with this post, I did have the Craft Roulette card done in time for the challenge, just didn’t get the blog post done until now. The Craft Roulette parameters are ⬇️. I was also greatly inspired by Sandy Diller’s Card, she created a beautiful bouquet that I just wanted to give a try.

I know I did a vellum shaker last week, but I really loved how it looked and the supplies were still on my “mesk” so I went for it again. The “circle” on my project is the large shaker on the front, the “Wizard of Oz” colours are – ruby RED slippers, emerald city GREEN, YELOW brick road, Dorthys BLUE dress, and Glindas PINK dress, Tin Man’s SILVER, and the movie starts in BLACK & WHITE. The wagon is something that can be found “on the road”, and I added wings with the butterfly.
