Take the Shot

Posted on June 21, 2023July 2, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

So many fun new dies, I wasn’t sure where to start. But when I saw the new Game Charms charms, with the 8 Ball I knew I wanted to make a pool table with all the balls. I thought using the Photo Collage Pop up would give the impression of the balls breaking.

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.

Gardening Gnomes

Posted on June 20, 2023July 2, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

It’s sneak peek week and I am LOVING these new dies.

I really appreciate how versatile Karen makes her dies, and how new sets work so well with previously released sets and this set is a perfect example. When I saw this new fence die I knew that it would make the perfect background for this fun garden scene using the beautiful flowers from the new fence set as well as beautiful flowers from another new set and previous dies (I will list them below as I go) there will also be some better close up photos below as well.

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.

Rainbow Balloons Birthday

Posted on June 7, 2023June 7, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

Well, I got the card done by the deadline but the blog post took a couple of extra days. I’ve been busy busy busy making cards for the Karen Burniston June Release but I was able to sneak in a Craft Roulette card

Here are this week’s parameters ⬇️

I took me a bit to wrap my brain about how I was going to meet the parameters but then it just clicked, and this is what I came up with.

Small Bag- the little hand bad the girl gnome is holding

Rainbow colours- throughout the card

Wheel- the greeting turns on the yellow wheel revealing 4 different messages

Shimmer- I used Wink of Stella to add glimmer to all the balloons and the girl gnomes.

Wedding Wishes- June designer challenge

Posted on June 6, 2023June 7, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

It’s the the first Tuesday in June so you know what that means, It’s Karen Burnistons Design Team challenge. This months challenge is to make either a “Wedding or Baby” card. I had decided to make a wedding card, but for some reason I was drawn to these colours, possibly because I just bought this paper pack at Michaels lol. So I guess with a swap of charms and greeting this could easily become a baby card, or a gender reveal card.
