Hope “IT’S” a Good One

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.

Book Worm back to school card

Welcome crafty friends to my Karen Burnistons September Design team challenge card. I almost 😓 didn’t pull this one off. I have had the most hectic summer that I’ve had in a long time, and somehow I got my wires crossed in my head and put hours into a card that my daughter asked for that I thought “Hey this will work for the design team challenge.” 🤦🏻‍♀️ except it would have worked for last months challenge. This months challenge is “Cascade” and we needed to make a card using the new “Cascade Pop Up” dieset and that is thing that I didn’t do 🤦🏻‍♀️ and didn’t realized my mistake until Sunday afternoon when I was working on the blog post. So I took a different card that I had started, made a few changes and this is what I came up with.

Toy Box with Blocks- July Design team challenge

Posted on July 7, 2026July 6, 2026 by mymessycraftroom5

How cute is this card, I was originally not sure what I was going to make for this months design team challenge, which is “box or blocks”. But then I remembered that I recently purchased the Treasure Chest dieset and I thought that it would make a great toy box, and then when choosing toys I decided to add the blocks, so I covered both options for this months challenge.

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.

It’s been a while since I have made a slimline card, so I thought it was time, I thought I would double the fun by adding 2 Little Twist Panel Pop up mechanisms.
