Blue and Green Birthday Candles Card

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

Hello, hello, crafty pals, today is the Karen Burnistons April Design team challenge and this month challenge is “designers choice” and you’d think that would be easy, but do you think I could come up with something lol. I was totally overthinking it. In the end I was bopping around Karen’s Webisite and I came across this Love Hearts Pop-up Instruction Sheet and thought it would be fun. I swapped out the Hearts add on for the Birthday Candles add on and this is what I came up with.

Happy Easter to my girls

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

Wow, this is my 50th Craft Roulette submission, its so hard to believe that I’ve made it to 50. Club 52 is just around the corner. I decided to make 3 Easter cards for my grand daughters. When it comes to their birthdays and Christmas they each get their own special card, when comes to Easter, Valentine’s and Halloween I tend to make them the same card but with some slight difference. For this card I used the same colour of card stock but mixed them up slightly differently with each card.

Here are this week’s Craft Roulette parameters.

This card has multiple folds but I am counting the main fold and I folded the corner of the patterned paper on the front of the card. I used nice bright jelly bean colours. Math was a bit more difficult but since I made 3 cards I had to multiple every piece by 3, I also had to count all the eggs. I used a Versa Mark marker to add all the shading.

Birthday Flamingos and Balloons

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

Hello, hello, today I am sharing a card I made for last weeks Craft Roulette, here are the parameters….

… and this is how I met the perimeters. This is a card for someone special, my granddaughter. The fruit colours are blueberry, strawberry, pink grapefruit, and lime. I stretched it a bit with the critters by using flamingoes but they are special to my granddaughter. I used water colour pencils to add all the shading.

Succulent Mug Birthday

Posted on by mymessycraftroom5

I know i’ve said it before, but I always love how my Craft Roulette cards come out. I have another card that never would’ve been if I hadn’t been playing Craft on Friday.

This is how I met the parameters, it is a birthday card. So that one was super easy. Succulent colours are the greens and the sky blue, the pink and yellow are from the blooms that some succulents will have. Waves are in the pattern paper. And the butterflies move in a waving motion when you open and close the card. And my mug is front and center.
