Hello Birthday Bouquet

Posted on August 2, 2023August 2, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

Ok, so I’m a bit late with this post, I did have the Craft Roulette card done in time for the challenge, just didn’t get the blog post done until now. The Craft Roulette parameters are ⬇️. I was also greatly inspired by Sandy Diller’s Card, she created a beautiful bouquet that I just wanted to give a try.

I know I did a vellum shaker last week, but I really loved how it looked and the supplies were still on my “mesk” so I went for it again. The “circle” on my project is the large shaker on the front, the “Wizard of Oz” colours are – ruby RED slippers, emerald city GREEN, YELOW brick road, Dorthys BLUE dress, and Glindas PINK dress, Tin Man’s SILVER, and the movie starts in BLACK & WHITE. The wagon is something that can be found “on the road”, and I added wings with the butterfly.

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.

I pulled this weeks Craft Roulette card together pretty quickly. I was stumped for the first day and finally decided this morning what I was going to do. Here are this weeks parameters ⬇️

I have 2 shaker “ windows” one on the front and one on the flower center, I chose to use “peacock” colours and silver as my neutral. My “by the pond” element is the dragonfly and I added the “paperclip” to the front.

Z Fold Flower Pot Pop up

Posted on July 15, 2023July 15, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

If someone were to ask me what my card making style is I would call it cute, or fun pop ups with a lot of little details. I like bright colours, and cute images. I like pretty cards but I don’t typically make them. I think this one is a really pretty one, and I love how it turned out.

This card also happens to be a Craft Roulette card, and this weeks challenges are below ⬇️

These parameters were pretty easy so of course I had to challenge my self to also make it a popup card. That was the tricky part, as it was a little more difficult to fit a pop up, in a Z fold card. Any colours was easy, as it didn’t matter what I chose, “old” was pretty easy, I chose ribbon that was my first Ebay purchase when Ebay first started, also old would be the fork bow technique that I used to make the bow. I really lucked out when I got to chose from my mesk as I still had this beautiful paper pack on my desk from when I made this card Hello Friend Card, apparently I need to clean my desk more often.
