Craft Roulette #246

I have recently been doing challenges with Craft Roulette.  The idea of this challenge is to take four different parameters (project, colors, element, and random) picked by spinning a wheel and make a card.  This week's parameters were Project/Holiday Card, Colors/Trees, Element/Drinking Vessel, and Random/Something from your floor.

I met these parameters as follows:

    Holiday Card -- New Years card

    Trees -- shades of green (even though they appear tan in the photo)

    Drinking Vessel -- Champagne glass

    Something from your floor -- My cardstock is in boxes stored on the floor.

I used several of Karen Burniston's dies on this card:  Postage Pop-up, Fireworks, and Mini Alphabet and Numbers, as well as a stamp from her Season of Cheer stamp set.

I'm enjoying the challenge each week and was glad I could incorporate some of Karen's dies in my card.

Karen Burniston - KB Riley LLC October 2024 Release Blog Hop

 Hi Crafty Friends,

Welcome to our Karen Burniston Products - KB Riley LLC October Release Blog Hop. The Design Team members have come together with Karen today for a fun blog hop to celebrate the release of 10 new dies and 5 new stamp sets. Sneak peeks of the new release started last week, and the dies are available to order NOW!

 

This release includes:

2 new Pop-up Die Sets
3 new Pop-up Add-ons Die Sets
2 new Stand Alone Die Sets
1 new Sentiment Die Set
2 new Charm Set Die Set
5 new Clear Sentiment Stamp Sets

Dies are available to order now on the website.

For my card, I chose the new Poinsettia die and the Merry Christmas Lorna Add-ons. 

The Poinsettia set has two sizes of flowers.  I used both on the front of my card, mounting them onto the largest of the Ovals - Crosshatch.  I glued small pearls onto the center circle piece.  I love that the set includes the little pine sprig and the berries.  They add to the texture of the card.

I added another smaller poinsettia on the inside, above the Merry Christmas Lorna Add-ons.  Included in this release are five new coordinating stamp sets.  The "and" and the "HAPPY NEW YEAR" are part of one set, which is called Season of Cheer.
