Craft Roulette

Zoyfold Winter Birthday Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #245 whose parameters included a tri-panel card, North or South Pole colors, holiday floral and snowflake(s). (I added the personal challenge of making a zoyfold card.)

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Details and supplies used are below.

Cardbase: The cardbase is really a blend of two cardbases together. The larger card is a 5×7-inch landscape/horizontal z-fold card with an almost square 4 1/8 x 4 1/4-inch card for a joyfold card Hence the newly coined card fold – the zoyfold (The term was coined by Mary Gunn Funn and Irene “Hattrick” Smith on the Craft Roulette Members Show #244.) Watch the video for assembly instructions.

Sentiments: All sentiments” When Snow is falling, Crafts are calling,” “You’re so cool,” and Happy Brrrthday to you.” are from the Karen Burniston Winter hugs stamp set. The “So I made this cool card” stamped on the card back with my signature is also from the same stamp set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A7 (5x 7-inch) size envelope. “HBD” for Happy Birthday is stamped on the envelope flap using a Craft Roulette stamp.

Dog Gone Cute Birthday Cards

| ullycatdesigns

I needed some birthday cards for dog lovers quickly, so I used Waffle Flower’s Birthday Puppies stamps and stencil sets along with Craft Roulette’s Funn Sentiments #01 stamp set and some patterned paper.

Watch the process video to see how I made these cards.

Cardbase: I cut an 8.5×11 sheet of white 65lb. cardstock in half to create two 5.5×8.5-inch rectangles that I fold in half to make side-fold A2 cardbases.

Sentiments: The front sentiments “Treat yourself today!” and “Woof-Woof (Happy Birthday)” are part of Waffle Flower’s Birthday Puppies stamps. The inside sentiments come from Craft Roulette’s Funn Sentiments #01 stamp set.

Envelope:  The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope.

Reindeer Farm Winter Holidays Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #239 whose parameters included an interactive card, picnic colors, farm element, and paper strips.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase:  I used a purchased A6 (4.5 x 6.25-inch) cardbase and envelope.

Stable & Reindeer:  Using the Reindeer Stable die set by Scrapping Cottage, cut the stable base from red cardstock and inked the edges with brown ink. All the other pieces were cut from white cardstock and colored. The weathervane was cut twice and glued together to reinforce the tiny piece. I made my own wire wobbler springs using thin florist wire and gluing them in place.

Flying Reindeer Mechanism:  Using dies by Whimsy Stamps kinetic collection, I eventually figured out how to make the reindeer fly over the stable using the die cut paper strips and foam dots. (Watch the tutorial to see how I made it.)

Snow:  Avry Elle white ink spray was used to cover the card with splatters of snow. (I had to color over the facial details and shading on the reindeer after spraying.) The trees have white gel pen to place snow accumulation at the end of the branches.

Sentiments:  All the winter sentiments stamped in black ink are from Waffle Flower. The “Pull” and arrow are tiny stamps from My Favorite Things.

Envelope:  The card fits into an A6 (4.5x 6.25-inches) size envelope With “Let It Snow” on the back flap.

A Light-Up Christmas Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #238 whose parameters included collage, Italian restaurant colors, short element and diagonal lines.

Watch the video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: I used a 11 x 4 1/4-rectangle folded in half to form a top-fold A2 (4 1/4 x 5 1/2-inch) card. The top panel was folded in half to form the easel.

Lights: Use one Pear Blossom Press Halo Light attaching to the front of the easel cardbase with double-sided tape. Cut a piece of white cardstock to cover the battery and button. Stamp the “Press Here” over where button is and attach with double-sided tape to battery case.

Wreath: Cut at least 20 pine tree branches from different shades of green. Cut a circle frame using the fourth and fifth larges circle dies and glue the pine branches around the circle. Attach the wreath to halo light with foam squares. Decorate with red dots and robin cut from decorative papers.

Card Back

Sentiments: “Wishing you a season of cheer” is from a new Karen Burniston stamps set Season of Cheer. The “Press Here” stamp is from Pear Blossom Press.
