Craft Roulette Challenges

Been away for awhile but still crafting! Here are my entries to the past

Episode #78- easel card, black background, camping and tone on tone!

I submitted this one but felt it was missing tress so I redid it!

Added trees and removed the tent! I think it looks much better.

Episode #79-FUNN Flap card, favorite 3 colors, under the tree and crinkle inkle



Window is my funn flap

Episode #80-A2 side fold card, yellow background, postage stamp and masking!

Had a postage stamp die and made my own. Strange colors for Christmas but it matched the postage stamp idea!


Hope these have inspired you to join in every Friday on YouTube and see what the wheel will do! 

Happy Crafting!

Thanksgiving Time!

Since my Halloween cards are done, I decided to work on Thanksgiving cards. I have the GinaK original wreath builder set so I thought I would attempt a slimline. She did a video on using her new larger wreath builder and made a mini slimline card and a regular slimline using her original wreath builder.  So I attempted it using the original wreath builder and my Stamperatus. I used our new Pumpkin Spice Scrapbooking Stamp and Thin cuts Z4315 for the gourds and leaves. Also used a stamp from GinaK's new mandala maker stamp set. There was a spot that just needed a little something!

Added some bling with our new Autumn Loose Sequins Z4298.


The sentiment is a retired CTMH stamp set.  So here is my card!


Almost forgot....I used one of our new colors on the 2 gourds and the card base called Harbour.


This color is growing on me! 

Hope you liked the card. Please don't forget to stop by my store for these and any other crafting needs. 

Happy Crafting!

Craft Roulette Challenge #77

I can't believe I have entered the Craft Roulette challenge 35 times! Whoa!

This weeks submission parameters were a card with a tag, red, yellow and violet colors, starts with B and random is ombre technique.

Here's what I came up with all by myself!


The tag is the dog tags, the B is the bird(eagle) and ombre affect with the colors. I love this card! Had to fussy cut the eagle and tags to tuck them under the birds feet!

I hope you have checked out Craft Roulette! It does challenge you!

Thanks for stopping by!
