Rainbows and Fairies

Posted on July 1, 2025July 1, 2025 by mymessycraftroom5

Good morning crafty friends, today I am sharing my July Karen Burniston Design Team challenge and this month’s challenge is “Rainbows”. At first I was stumped trying to come up with a unique way to make a rainbow card. I decided to add little rainbow coloured fairies and have them colouring the flowers in the rainbow colours. So if you look closely, you will see there are bits of some of the flowers that are not coloured in to imply that the fairies are colouring in all these nature elements.

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.

Sew Glad We’re Friends

It’s Sew much fun playing with new die sets, and the new Sewing Charms are super cute. I decided to use this set on a pink monochromatic Circle Tag book card. I thought it would be cute to have the thread from the spool on the front wind all the way through from the front to the back.

This card was actually a double challenge for me LOL. This weeks Crazy4Challenges challenge was to create a card using 2 or more stencils, the only problem is that I don’t own many stencils, I actually only have a few and most of them are OLD. So I decided to make my own stencils. On this card I used mostly retired products, I’ve been asked why I use retired products and…… that’s because that’s what I have. I am not on any company design teams so no freebies for me, and I believe in using what I have, and I can’t go out and buy everything I want (even though I wish I could) So maybe you won’t be able to copy this card completely but I do really hope you find some inspiration in this card in other ways.

Over the Rainbow Birthday card

Posted on November 8, 2020November 9, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

Every once in a while I get excited about how a card turned out, and I have to say I am pretty happy with this one. I made this card especially for my niece and I’m finally able to share it. At first I was stumped as to what to make her as I generally go a little over the top when making cards for her and her brother (His last card) But I was inspired by a Shaker Card that I made a few months ago and I wanted to change it up a bit make it bigger and better. And this is what I came up with.

White Wedding-C4C527

Posted on March 13, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

Ok, sorry I’ve been slow posting this week, I have a pretty big card in progress, it’s just taking a little longer than I thought to finish, but first I have this weeks Crazy4Challenges card to post. According to the Days of the year calendar, today is White Day, apparently in countries where Valentine’s Day is observed by women giving chocolates to those they love White day is the day they get the return on that investment, for our challenge this week we have to create a white on white card. I decided to make a Wedding card.
