Craft Roulette Fabric Wreath card

I have another fabric card to join the many others that I have made. These are squares of fabric that my Mother cut out for her potholders. She had heat and bond on the back so once I inherited them all I had to do was iron them onto the paper of my choice. This time it was a Spellbinders die cut. Then the background paper is by Creative Memories. The gold papers by Sizzix are supposed to resemble a present. 

As you read in the title, this card is for my new obsession called Craft Roulette. Check out the video that I linked below.

Craft Roulette 192 parameters were: 

a thank you card. I thank my Mom for cutting these out for me to use after she was gone. Colors-Farmers Market. Our farmers have apple farms, hence the green and red. Yard-the green in my wreath looks like grass . Confetti-the red berries in the wreath but now that I look at it the confetti could be the patterned paper.

Check out Craft Roulette on Fridays and then on they have a show on Tuesday.

Quilted Patterned paper gatefold card

I have a simple gatefold card with a belly band. It features green woodgrain washi tape. The die cut is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. The patterned paper is by October Afternoon. The center of the band is a stamp that I stamped with a new to me ink pad that was juicy. It was too juicy. So I used White pigment ink on a cotton ball and tapped around the shape. This gave it a cloudy look, but good look. Idk what kind of card this will be. But it’s okay to have options where I can add a sentiment later.

Another example using the same paper

November calendar layout remembering Jodi

‘

Who was Jodi? My Mom called Jodi my brother’s “lady friend”. Jodi passed away on January 10th, 2018 from an accidental overdose. These pictures are representations of her, her dog Chloe, who passed away in 2022 and the sweatshirt with her son’s business on the back. The sweatshirt finally fits my niece. 

The bone background paper and the strip of patterned paper are and on the right side are unknown. (The Paper Studio-maybe) The yellow borders were from a paper pad by Die Cuts with a View. The butterfly sentiment and wings were made on my Cricut. The little butterfly to the lower right is a Memory Box die cut. RIP stickers and Chloe was stamped. It seemed appropriate to post this on my birthday, I miss her so much. Thanks for looking.

Christmas Ornaments Card

I fussy cut these ornaments from patterned paper by The Paper Studio at Hobby Lobby. I then added Stickles to their design. I used my sewing machine to quickly sew the lines in to look like they are hanging down. The Hero Arts sentiment stamps were stamped onto cardstock and cut them out to fit the card’s design.

 Thanks for looking.

Here are some other Christmas cards that have sewing on them. Keep in mind that these are OLD cardso

Craft Roulette #189 YouTube 

And the

Parameters

Project- A2

Color: Forest ColorS

Element- Starts with “H”

Random -Postage stamp

The background paper is watercolor paper by Strathmore. The pattern is a sheet of rub ons that I don’t know of any other way to use them. It would be a lot of work and frustration to get a little circle out of the center.

Anyway, I inked the background with green distress ink, sprayed the paper with regular water on it and wiped it off with a paper towel. That made the white stand out in the images. 

The Hero Arts sentiment was white heat embossed onto black cardstock and the layered onto Spellbinders die cut. The little tags were part of a prize and here’s a link to Layle by Mail. 

That’s it for me. Complaining—>I have so many things to do and not enough healthy days to do them. But, I woke up this morning and that’s a win. Thanks for looking.

Floral Friday black and teal

The leaves are the negative pieces from a die cut by Simply Refinded. The flower stamp in the middle of the circle is by Hampton Arts. The stamp is unknown. Thanks for looking.

November Calendar Layout The Last Supper

I started with brown patterned paper by Creative Memories and then added the Making Memories floral paper  on top. The teal paper is unknown. 

The leaves are stickers. The title Grateful by K and Co. is a sticker on top of a Spellbinders die that I inked the inside before taking it out of the die. The flower in the brown square (by K and Co. too) is a sticker layered on top of teal square punch and a bigger brown square punches by Creative Memories.

Thanks for looking.

Cricut patterned background with a Butterfly Card

The background was made with a Cricut. The border punch is by Martha Stewart out of Making Memories and Sunborn patterned paper. The butterfly stamp was from Cloud 9 and I colored it in with Copic markers. Thanks for looking. 

Manly Monday Recycled Vintage Birthday card

The card above is where I started with this card…6 months ago. I final pulled it out and decided it was time to get it out and make it into a card.    

The background “paper” is the back of a die cut package by K and Co. The left side borders are just paper scraps from Die Cuts with a View and Crete Papers. The sentiment stamp is by Stampibilities from hobby lobby. All done, tada. Thanks for looking

Floral Friday framed with butterflies

Die cuts by Memory box and papers by My Mind’s Eye. Idk about the sentiment stamp. Thanks for looking.    

November Calendar Layout Good Times

with the Groh Family

I used patterned paper by K and Co, Fancy Pants Designs as well as Die Cuts with a View.

The die cuts are by Spellbinders.

I wish I could tell you exactly where the heart and the Good times stickers came from but those things are downstairs.

Intricate die-cut birthday card in Aqua

The background paper is a Project Life card. The die cut is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. The sentiment was a Michael's dollar bin find. The rectangle die cut is by Stampendous. The stamped border is a Stampin Up, Mosaic Stamp set. Thanks for Looking.

Manly Monday Red and Black Argyle card

The argyle background is a Cricut die cut. The sentiment is by some stamp company in the basement. Hehe.

Thanks for looking and sharing with others.

Manly Monday EEK! Gdê

I really like the way this card came together. The little monster stamps are by Stampendous. I stamped them with black Memento ink and colored them in with Copic markers. I then took the colorless blender and pulled the color out from the monsters to make them appear fuzzy.

The window is a piece of white cardstock stamped with a Just Rite wooden background stampin brown ink. I cut the windows out using my trimmer. It’s a little bit rough but I’m okay with it. I die cut the letters and exclamation point by Sizzix. Underneath the window are three pieces of packaging I used to create my background. 

Thanks for looking.

October Calendar Layout Halloween Mickey

 This is my husband’s nephews and their wives and sons. The Mickey head was made with 3 circles of K and I patterned paper. I stamped inside the circles in the pattern. The other two pieces of paper are by Bo Bunny. The brad is by Around the Block. 

Cricut Snow Globe Christmas Card

The snow globe is a Cricut draw and cut out of textured cardstock. I colored it in with colored pencils. The background stamp is by Stampin Up. The Merry Christmas is a rub-on. The smallest snowflakes are sequins by American Crafts. I added Stickles to the star and snowflake punch. Thanks for looking.

Manly Monday Zombie sending hugs Card

The card above needed something…

So as you can see I started with one card and decided to go with my gut and add a zombie. Whenever in doubt add a zombie. What’s happening with me? Craft Roulette is happening to me. Mary says so many cards would not have been made if it wasn’t for Craft Roulette. The parameters are:

Make a card for a teacher-my card went to a teacher friend who has cat scratch fever.

Color-Tartan

Spring or fall scene-fall scene

Create a wrap- My fabric is ironed on and wrapped around to the back.

The red pattern is fabric and the yellow paper is old. I don’t have a clue by whom. The sentiment is an after-market set from Mercari. One of the words is spelled wrong.

Anyway, the fence die cut is unknown. I layered up 3 of the fence die cuts on top of each other for some dimension that I wouldn’t have been able to do with foam tape. This old tree die cut was cut out with my Cricut. It was out of a patterned paper so I inked it brown. I colored it with some Copic markers. The zombie stamp is from Prickly Pear. Thanks for looking. Have a great week.

Mini Happy Holidays Card for Mom

This card base is an upcycled thank you card from my Mom’s funeral memorial. It sounds morbid but my Mom would have liked that I was using them. The size is smaller 3.5 x 5 and it has dry embossing around the edges that I lightly inked with distress ink. To explain this card I’m going to start with closest layer to the card, which is a Creative Memories journal card. On top of that is blue cardstock followed by a card from a Craft Smith paper pad. I didn’t like the sentiment so I covered it up with a stamped sentiment. I’m happy with how it turned out. I have a few cards using similar products that I have to watermark. Thanks so much for taking a look at my blog.

Ribbon by Stampin Up.

The patterned paper is by Echo Park.

The stamps are by Stampendous.

Thanks for looking.

Floral Friday Dimensional Cricut flower

Like the title says the flower is a Cricut die cut. The sentiment is a die cut by Simply Defined (That’s a guess) I put the card panel on the card base upside down. Ugh! The card base is smaller, 3x5 and has texture with a dry embossed rectangle 1/4” around the edges. I really need to use up the handful of these flowers that I have. It looks so pretty on a card but the sentiment doesn’t match. Better luck next time.Thanks for looking.

September calendar Layout with Dad and Pam

I used a border punch by EK Success and did one side and the title was cut out with my Cricut. The circle was dry embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder. I inked it with distress ink and then sprayed it with water mixed with gold Perfect Pearls. I cut off the bottom of another circle the same size and adhered it to this one. I then used a border sticker and placed it over the seam. The die cuts are by Recollections.

Thanks for looking.

Manly Monday sports frame card

So, today is a good day to start posting on my blog again.

Why?

I like my blog. I like looking back and seeing my creations that I made years ago. So same schedule as before;

Manly Monday 

Calendar Wednesday

Floral Friday

Happy Monday to all. So here is another Craft Roulette challenge card. Ya know what? The show airs on Friday and people have until Sunday at midnight to enter the challenge. That would be 1 AM my time. So of course I wait until 11 to start my project and it takes me until the very last second. I like the way the card turns out.

Craft Roulette  #177 

The parameters are games, colors-summer vacations, windows, and checks. I made the sunrise from yellow ink 

And a piece of paper to create the rays. Then I added put Stickles on the rays. I stamped the sports frame by Stampendous colored it in with Copic markers and then cut it out with the matching dies. The grass is made out of regular green ink. Since one of the perimeters was checks I took a green marker and drew checks into the grass. 

I apologize for the extra letters or words that are odd. My hands are very jerky today. Also, they say the anesthesia can cause a fog for a while afterward. I probably just got over the fog and then had my second surgery. Thanks for looking

Plus, I am on an iPad and sometimes blogger which is a Google platform, don’t play nice in the sandbox

Floral Friday Yellow Spelllbinders card

The patterned papers are by Papertrey Ink. The Copic markers that I used were:Y11, Y28, YG91,G24, YG99. The middle flower is raised up on 3M dimensional adhesive. I used a white gel pen and. some Stickles. Sometimes it was added to cover something lol up.The pattern paper is by Papertrey Ink.

August Calendar Layout Niece’s wedding

My niece got married in 2020. Poor thing had to keep moving it back. All I know off hand about this layout it the title is by Cricut. Thank you for looking.

Floral Friday Hello card with Half and Half

This card is one of my faves and there’s nothing to it. Patterned paper is by Making Memories and the word die cut paper is by Colorbok. The main die cut is by Simply Defined by Scrapbooking made Simply. I don’t exactly know where the sentiment die is from. But I do know that it’s in blue and white packaging and it’s a girl’s name. It’s probably in the basement. I can’t go into the basement to look it up because I had surgery in June and my balance is off making me more susceptible to fall. So I’m staying upstairs.

Thanks for looking.

These are almost the same layouts but were in calendars for different people. The main patterned paper is by Die Cuts with a View and the small piece is by Provo Craft.

The heart is a sticker by Sticko/EK Success.
