Barnyard Bash

Posted on May 6, 2025 by mymessycraftroom5

I just love how this card turned out and am excited to share it with you today. Today is the Karen Burniston design team challenge day and the challenge for May is to “make it fluffy”. I have a fluffy sheep, fluffy clouds, and fluffy icing on my cupcakes. I decided to make this barnyard bash card for my Granddaughters first birthday card. Her stuffed cow is her favourite so I thought I’d make her a cow with all her barn yard buddies.

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.

Blue and Green Birthday Candles Card

Posted on April 8, 2025April 7, 2025 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.

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 March 9, 2025 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.

Sand Toys on the Beach

Posted on March 4, 2025March 3, 2025 by mymessycraftroom5

At first I wasn’t sure what I was going to do for this month’s Karen Burniston design team challenge. Karens challenge to us is “Lake or Ocean”. Well as some of you know I grew up in a town that is on the shores of Lake Huron, so I knew I wanted to lean towards lake. I also knew I wanted to do something a little different than what I’ve previously done, or else would it really be a challenge 🤷🏻‍♀️ So I thought for a bit, what else can you do at the beach and then it hit me… play with sand toys. And this is what I came up with.
