Balloon Birthday Bouquet

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

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 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.

Golden Anniversary Triple Collage Pop up

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

When I found out that family friends of ours would be celebrating their Golden Wedding anniversary I knew exactly the card I wanted to make. A few months ago Karen Burniston made a card using three of the Heart Collage mechanism, I wanted to switch it up a little bit. I put the Photo collage mechanism in the middle (bigger mechanism) and a two heart collage mechanism on either sides (smaller mechanism) and I wanted gold, LOTS of gold.

Triple Spin card- Halloween Haunted Mansion

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

This was almost the card I was going to post for last weeks designer challenge as the theme was Halloweenor or Fall but I decided that Inwanted to be different than the rest and go with fall. Back in July Karen Burniston made a card using the Spinner Square dieset, where she used it THREE TIMES on one card, to make a “Triple Square Spinner Card”. I absolutely love when she teaches new ways to use dies that I already have. But anyone who knows me knows that I challenge myself to find a way to put my own spin (yes the pun was intended) on it, so instead of squares I decided to make a giant Haunted Mansion. This is what I came up with.

With this technique not only does the haunted mansion pop up but the bats, and the “boo” swing from left to right, and the ghost swings from right to left.

Sew Glad We’re Friends

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

It’s Sew much fun playing with new die sets, and the new Sewing Charms are super cute. I decided to use this set on a pink monochromatic Circle Tag book card. I thought it would be cute to have the thread from the spool on the front wind all the way through from the front to the back.
