Photo Fan Peacock- March Design Team challenge card

Posted on March 3, 2026March 2, 2026 by mymessycraftroom5

Hello crafty friends, sorry I’ve been MIA for the last bit but I have been away. I’m back now, just in time to create my card for the March Karen Burniston Design team challenge. This month challenge is “For the Birds”, and I decided to see if I could add the Peacock Add-ons pieces to the Photo Fan Pop-up as apposed to the Arch Pop-up that it was intended for. 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.

Sending Bugs and Kisses Box-January Design Team challenge

Posted on January 6, 2026January 6, 2026 by mymessycraftroom5

Happy New Year crafty friends and welcome back to my blog. Today I am sharing my take on Karen Burniston’s January designer challenge which is “Bugs”. For those of you that follow along (and actually read) my blog you know that when I make a project I typically figure it out as I go. This project is definitely one of those. I started with a loose idea and then I went completely down the rabbit hole and ended up with this. Typically I add links through out the post but because most of these use mostly the same die sets I will link them at the end. If you follow the link, Karen has video tutorials for each set (just scroll down a bit once you get to the product)

I have to say I think these little critters are adorable!!!!!
