Mandala and Flowers- Thinking of you

Posted on March 6, 2024 by mymessycraftroom5

I’m back with another fun Craft Roulette Card. I actually had to dig out a stamp for this one. These are the parameters…

And this is how I met the parameters… It is a “Thinking of You” card, I think pastels are pretty fairy tale colours. Garden gnomes have ears and can hear. And I stamped the mandala on the background of the front.

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.

Touch of Gold Get Well Soon

Yay I got to play Craft Roulette this week and and I really love how this card turned out. I wanted to make a pretty card for a young lady who will be recovering from a surgery and I hope this card cheers her up.

Here are this weeks parameters ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

This is how I worked in the parameters. The borders are all side pockets with ribbon peaking out, I also have a gift card pocket on the back. To me spring colours scream fresh and clean Rhymes with “ool” is Jewel and I have them sprinkled throughout the card. I used a brick embossing folder sideways to make columns in the background.

It’s been a few weeks, but I finally get to play an episode of Craft Roulette. I got to have fun using a few of the new diesets so this week is double the fun. Here are this weeks parameters

For see through I used clear plastic for the front, colours are Rustic Garden, so I made the whole card a garden. For fashion I dolled up my bunny, and I have hexagons on the front and 1/2 a hexagon on the inside for writing a message.

Gardening Gnomes

It’s sneak peek week and I am LOVING these new dies.

I really appreciate how versatile Karen makes her dies, and how new sets work so well with previously released sets and this set is a perfect example. When I saw this new fence die I knew that it would make the perfect background for this fun garden scene using the beautiful flowers from the new fence set as well as beautiful flowers from another new set and previous dies (I will list them below as I go) there will also be some better close up photos below as well.

Never More Than a Thought Away-C4C554

Posted on September 23, 2020September 17, 2022 by mymessycraftroom5

*Sorry I’ve been MIA, but I’m here with a fun card for this weeks Crazy4Challenges challenge blog. I did make this card back in July, my mom was quite ill and this is a card I made for her. I haven’t had the chance to post it yet, and it just happens to fit this weeks challenge which is ……… to create a slimline card. Slimline cards have become quite popular these days so Karen Burniston came up with an alternative design for her Circle Tagbook die set, and I couldn’t wait to give it a go. This is my version…..
