Craft Roulette #334 | Thinking of You

I'm so excited that I have a card to submit for Episode #334 with Shilo Miles! New to Craft Roulette? Check it out HERE!!

Each week Craft Roulette spins a wheel to randomly choose 4 parameters: Project, Colors, Element and Random. You create a card with those parameters and then submit it for everyone to see. It's fun to see how many different ways the parameters are interpreted!


For Episode #334 the parameters were: Project-Include An ATC, Colors-Produce Isle, Element-Tree(s) and Random-Use 3 Circles. For my card I did: Project-I included an ATC in the middle of my card, Colors-Oranges-carrots, Greens-lettuce, Browns-potatoes from a produce isle, Element-I have an autumn tree, and Random-the pumpkins are circles and I added 3 sparkly enamel dots!

A bonus is that I used a stamp set I've never used before and I've had it quite some time! I used the Stampin' Up Happy Scenes stamp set along with some fun papers from Not 2 Shabby.



While I have this stamp set out I hope to create a few more cards with it soon! I really liked how my card turned out!

Have an amazing day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

July 2023 Crafty Courtyard Kit- Summer Fruits

Earlier in the week I used the Pink & Main July 2023 Crafty Courtyard Kit-Summer Fruits for my SheetLoad Rewind cards. The kit was still on my desk so I decided to just sit and play and create more cards with it.


There were 4 sketches on the printable enclosed so I used those on some of my cards to "get started". 

I had so much fun just sitting and creating! I used almost all of the cardstock in the kit and most of the patterned paper which is a rare thing for me! Feels good to use my stash!

Foiled cards are so hard to photograph but so pretty in person!






Have a marvelous day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!
