Totally Epic Birthday card

Posted on May 4, 2024May 4, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

So sort of a funny story behind this one. I needed a birthday card for my nephew. And I was going to make him a cupcake card. Who doesn’t love cupcakes. My husband asked me what kind of card I was making and how old was our nephew going to be. And he was like “you are not making our teenage nephew a cupcake card, your going to call you sister and find out what he is into and your going to make him a cool card”. So I did and she filled me in on a video game that I have never heard of before. Google saved me again. If you read the green letters, it spells the name of the video game.

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.

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.

I have 2 shaker “ windows” one on the front and one on the flower center, I chose to use “peacock” colours and silver as my neutral. My “by the pond” element is the dragonfly and I added the “paperclip” to the front.

Yayyyyyy today is the day. Today is Karen Burnistons sneak peek for her June collection, and to say I have been having soooooo much fun with this release would be an understatement. I hope you all love it as much as I do.

I have been having so much fun with these new dies, I can’t decide which card to post first. As I’m writing this blog post this card is in the running. It is a fun mix of new and previously released dies, and if you like to bake, or have a baking loved one this set is a must. I also will explain how I made some of the other elements that I created to complete the scene.
