Tea-riffic Day

Posted on February 13, 2024February 14, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

Today’s the day, it’s Karen Burniston’s new release sneak peek, and it is such a fun release. I’m a tea drinker so I was really happy to see the borders and pop up.

I thought it would be so cute if I used pieces from the Tea and Coffee Borders, the Tea and Coffee Pop up, and Lorna Label to make this cute little girls Tea Party.

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.

Fairy Party in the Park

Posted on January 17, 2024January 17, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

There is something so magical about fairies , Tinkerbelle was always one of my favourite characters so when ever I use the Fairie die from the Backyard Charms I fashion them in her image. For this card I made a fairy party in the park and decided to make them all a little different from each other.

Time for Tea- Thinking of you card

Posted on May 28, 2023May 28, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

Are you a coffee or tea person? I’m a tea gal, in real life I would lose my mind if I found out that mice were playing in my tea cups, but I think they are super cute on paper. I used Craft Roulette parameters to make this card.

I have my flaps on the inside, they give a little extra room for writing a message. I’m not sure why but I often choose these colours when making winter scenes, it makes me think of icy cold. Children’s story had me stumped for a bit, for some reason the nursery rhyme “Three Blind Mice” got stuck in my head. Aren’t nursery rhymes short children’s stories? And last but not least “tiles” I have embossed tiles as the background for both the front and the inside. And of course my personal challenge of making it a pop up card.

Backyard Buddies Birthday Card

Posted on May 7, 2023May 7, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

There is a bit of a benefit when some of your family doesn’t follow your blog or your social media ( or anything on the internet ), you can post their birthday card before their birthday 😜 sshhhhh

This weeks Craft Roulette Parameters weren’t too difficult, so I decided to give myself a couple extra challenges, 1 was to make a pop-up card that works with the rest of the parameters, and 2 was to make it masculine. CR parameters ⬇️

One of the challenges for me was to find patterned paper that was the colour of “Flowering Fields” but could still be used on a masculine card. The colours on the stripes look like they were painted on.
