Pop up card – Page 2 – My Messy Craft Room

Congrats, you did it

I needed to make a masculine grad card so I went digging through my paper stash and found the greyish paper that isn’t quite camo but has the greys and a bit of the burgundy so I grabbed burgundy cardstock for the card base and came up with this.

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.

There is something so magical about fairies , Tinkerbelle was always one of my favourite characters so when ever I use the Fairie die from the Backyard Charms I fashion them in her image. For this card I made a fairy party in the park and decided to make them all a little different from each other.

Box of Candy Hearts Card- December Release sneak peek

Posted on December 4, 2023December 4, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

It’s Karen Burniston’s SNEAK PEEK WEEK, and I know I say this every time but I’ve got to say this is such a fun release. These candy hearts take me back to my grade school Valentine’s Days 💝 and I had so much fun creating with them.

Here is the link to Karen’s Preview Video

I had the idea in my head to have the candy hearts on the Heart Collage Pop up, but I thought it would be missing something, like why the candy hearts would be moving around 🤔 so I played a little bit and got the Candy Heart Box to fit in the card 🤯

Swirling Snowflakes

Posted on November 18, 2023November 18, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

It’s been a couple of busy weeks but I finally have a card to post. I thought I would play Craft Roulette to inspire a much needed Christmas card to add to my small pile. The Craft Roulette Parameters ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

How this card meets the parameters is…the mechanism in the middle is a “fancy fold” the twists when the card opens. I think of teals and silver when I think of “aquarium colours”, I used snowflakes to represent “November” and I have the little gems randomly around but I have them grouped in “clusters of 3” in several areas.
