Autumn Trees Anniversary

It’s been a minute but I finally have a Craft Roulette inspired card. I had a lot of fun with this card, I made quite a few boo boos, but I continued through and I love how it turned out.

This week’s parameters are ⬇️⬇️⬇️ and I gave myself a couple other challenges as well. 1- besides the card base all of the other card stock had to come from my scrap bin. I have so much scrap paper I did not allow myself to cut from a full sheet. 2- use a die set that I have not used before, this is the first time I have used Karen Burnistons Family room Pop up , and 3- Mixed Media was a topic that was discussed on this weeks episode of Craft Roulette so I thought that I would give it a try.

The circles are little clear dots on the front, and the message space on the inside. The vegetable garden colours – orange pumpkin, red tomatoes, yellow corn, beans, green beans, peas, leaves, brown potatoes, blue sky. The screen element was tricky but the red fabric has a “screen” like weave to it, the ribbon has a bigger “screen” weave to it. The fluff is all over the trees, I used Flower soft to create this look.

Peek-a-boo Elf card

Still having so much fun with the Stocking Pop Up die set. This time I used the mechanism to pop up this adorable elf playing peek-a-boo in the stack of Santas presents. As you open and close the card the elf peeks up over the present he is behind.

Me 😀

This was such a fun card to make, I wanted to use the Oven Pop up in a unique way, so instead of a nice pretty kitchen scene, I went for the kitchen of nightmares. On the plus side I think this is the only card I’ve ever made that used Christmas and Halloween diesets.

Killer Birthday

Here is my second card for this new release

I am so stoked to share this card today. It is a card I made for my slasher movie loving brother, and it was a hit. Believe it or not but this card uses the new Stocking pop up to animate my Jason Character
