Dive into five- under the sea birthday card

Posted on September 15, 2026 by mymessycraftroom5

I have to say that I am quite giddy about this card. My granddaughter was having her fifth birthday party and it has going to be an under the sea/mermaid themed card. In the past I have made her cards starring her favourite pink sloth stuffy. I thought this time I would go with just the mermaid under the sea card. The she asked me specially if I could make her a card with her little buddy on, and a heart, a BIG heart. I had already cut out all the sea creatures so I had to think about how I was going to add our pink fluffy friend and this is what I came up with….

Calling all Scary movie lovers, today I am sharing my fourth annual “scary movie” themed birthday card. My little bro is a horror movie buff so I have been making him these cards for the last 4 years. (JasonYear 1, FreddieYear 2, MichaelYear 3). There was a lot of trial and error while making this card but it all worked out in the end.

Double Balloon Arch Graduation Card

Posted on May 24, 2026 by mymessycraftroom5

Hello crafty friends, today I am sharing a card that was inspired by Karen Burnistons Double Arch Coffee Cup Pop up. I thought it would be a fun way to make a really big Balloon arch for a graduation card. The school that this graduate attends does their graduation ceremony a bit different, it’s like they combine prom and grad at the same day, that’s why the little character on the inside is wearing more of a prom dress than the traditional cap and gown.

Hello crafters, I really love the look of monochromatic cards, well this one is mostly monochromatic, I added the green leaves to break up a bit of the orange and yellow, and I really love how this turned out.
