Blooming Flowers Pop Up Card

Posted on June 8, 2020June 8, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

So I know Mother’s Day was last month, but I didn’t get the chance to post this card, and since the card theme can change with just a change of the greeting I thought I would post it anyway. I got this idea from a 50th Birthday Card that Karen Burniston made, I thought it would be fun to do it with flowers so I gave it a go.

The thing that makes this card so fun is that the front is clear plastic, so you get a peak of the inside but don’t get the full effect until it is opened.

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.

Sssshhhhh Moms Belated Birthday Card

Posted on June 1, 2020June 3, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

Edit- I have many people ask where to get this dieset, unfortunately it is not longer available (possibly on eBay or Amazon) it is called the Accordion Ring die set from Karen Burniston. Currently she has the Fancy Label Accordion dieset for sale on her website. Same idea just a different shape.

I am soooo far behind in everything this year 🙄 here is a belated card for my mom. The postal service is so far behind here I’m not sure when’s she’s going to get it, she still hasn’t gotten her Mother’s Day card 🙄. Anyway this is what I came up with

Pull Out Flower basket card

Posted on May 5, 2020May 5, 2020 by mymessycraftroom5

Hey everyone I actually have a mid week post the week, welllll sort of. I was going through my photos of cards I made last year and I found this one. The only problem is is that I either didn’t take photos or I already deleted them. But I have the details from another card that I made at the same time that I did post last year. Exact same measurements exact same technique just different colours. So I thought I would share this pretty pink and red one today and I am linking to the directions from the one from last year if you want to know all of the dies that I’ve used and the measurements and how I cut and assembled. Here is the LINK to last years card.

The cardstock is all from Stampin Up and the colours are either Real Red or Ridinghood Red, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White, Very Vanilla, Garden Green, Crumb Cake, and possibly Creamy Caramel.

The diesets used are the Woven Basket box card Pop up and the Flower Pot pop up die set, both from Karen Burniston.

Surprise Birthday Bouquet

Posted on September 18, 2019September 4, 2022 by mymessycraftroom5

*I have been trying to think of a way to use the triple flip die set in a different way, then I saw Karen Aickens version where she only used one large flipper as opposed to using all three smaller flippers. Also one of my oldest and dearest friends had a birthday coming up and I decided she needed a fancy bouquet of flowers for her birthday, so I decided to combine the two. The effect I was looking for with this card was to have the card look like it is one colour of a bouquet when closed, but have a different colour of bouquet when it is open, and I think I pulled it off
