Hello Beautiful

Posted on May 9, 2024May 8, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

Hello, I’m a little late posting my Craft Roulette card this week, but here it is. This card turned out prettier than I thought it would. This weeks parameters are…

This is how I met the parameters, “Hello“ is part of the greeting on the front. The deep purple is a “robust” colour. Workplace is kind of a stretch but I do have flowers as decor around my workplace, or if I were a florist I’d be surrounded by flowers. And “Mixed Media” is the multiple products I used; paper, cardstock, gold Wink of Stella, clear Wink of Stella, clear bubbles, lace ribbon, gold string, Versa marker, and white gel pen. This is what I came up with….

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, or TikTok 😊

Hello Sweet Baby

Posted on April 23, 2024April 23, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

I got to have some fun playing Craft Roulette. I’ve been needing to make a baby card and the parameters for this week gave me the perfect opportunity.

This is how I met the parameters, babies are good tidings, I used a paper pack called “Best Summer Ever” by Echo Park, I used a triple pop up mechanism, and I tied 2 bows on the front of the card and one on the bear on the inside.

Senility Prayer

This week I’ve got another Craft Roulette inspired card, I thought these parameters would make a good birthday card for my dad.

This is how I met the parameters. Trifold is three folds, I have one on each side and one on the bottom. Sleigh Ride colours, trees and snow can be seen on a sleigh ride. I googled jokes for older men and found this one. And the balloon on the front is way bigger than the rest so it is out of proportion.

Birthday, Tiny Trees

Joy Fold Pop Up Tree card.

Posted on April 2, 2024April 4, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

I was in need of a masculine birthday card when I sat down to make this Craft Roulette card. I was stumped for a day because I also wanted to make a pop up card but I wasn’t sure how to work that in with parameters. I actually hadn’t figured it until after I started. Here are this weeks parameters…

The way the card is folded is a Joy Fold card, I actually made a slimline Joyfold, I think the colours used could be seen on a buggy ride, the colours of the sky, grass, trees and the colours of buildings could be seen in the striped paper. The sticks can be found in the trees and the stones are around the trees. The trim is the twine around the front and the woven ribbon on the front and inside of the flap. I had the added challenge of making it a masculine card and working in the pop up.

Sweet Day – travel card

Posted on March 24, 2024March 24, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

I have been looking for a reason to make a travel card and I thought this weeks Craft Roulette Card would be a good time. Karen Burniston made a Traveling Birthday Card a while back and I decide to make a card just to cheer up its recipients. Like the past few Craft Roulette challenges I also challenged myself to use a mechanism I haven’t used in a while and a die set I haven’t used before. Here are this weeks parameters…..

And this is how I met the parameters. It is an A2 sized card (which was a little hard for me as I usually make large cards), strawberry and chocolate ice cream colours. Who doesn’t love tasty ice cream, donuts or popcycles. And the squares are a hung banner. The Upsy Daisy Pop Up is a set I haven’t used in a while and the Sweet Treats Charms is the set that I haven’t used before.
