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.

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.

October Designer Challenge- Fall Garden Bench card

Posted on October 4, 2022October 3, 2022 by mymessycraftroom5

Yay, its that time again, it’s the Karen Burniston October Designer challenge, and this month’s challenge is to make either a Halloween card or a Fall-themed card and I went with a fall-themed card. I have a co-worker who needed an anniversary card, and he also was requesting a card with fall colours, there was also talk of there possibly being a wooden bench swing for a gift so I challenged myself to make the Karen Buriston Garden Bench popup into a swing, and the results turned out better than I thought it would.

“Forest Friends, Happy Birthday”

Posted on September 12, 2018September 10, 2018 by mymessycraftroom5

This card was an experiment. When I originally saw the video for Karen Burnistons Cascading Tag card {see card “Back to the Beach” from Aug 17,18} my brain started churning if she could do that with the Adirondack chair die, what could I do with the Garden Bench die {see card “Friends” from Aug 30, 18}, I assumed that in theory that it should work, long story short, it didn’t, well not as well as the Adirondack chair turning into a cascading tag card but I did come up with this.
