Craft Roulette Inspired Belated Birthday Card

Sometimes the best creative ideas come from a fun challenge! 
Today's card was inspired by the parameters from 
Craft Roulette Episode #326
which encouraged me to mix a playful image with 
bold layers for a lighthearted belated birthday design.

I used products from



I started with a striped paper from the Savanna Neutrals Paper Pad for my background. 
A check paper from the Vintage Americana Paper Pack was cut with 
one of the dies from the Banner Die Set.
The colors of these papers and the solid card stock I've used meet
the "sleigh ride" colors parameter.

For the focal point, I stamped, colored and fussy cut 
one of the images from the Food Coma Ready Stamps.
The image is a turkey, so the "farm critter" parameter is met.


 The oversized greeting was created with the Dang, Whoa Yikes! Word and Shadow Dies, 
making the sentiment the star of the card. I drew stitching onto the letters
with a fine brown felt pen to meet the "pen" parameter.

I finished the card off with the stamped phrase, 
"I'm Sorry I Missed Your Birthday," 
for a playful apology that's sure to bring a smile.

The overall design and products used definitely are more along masculine lines,
so the "dude's card" parameter is met.

Craft Roulette challenges are always a great way to stretch your creativity, 
and this combination of products came together to create 
a cheerful belated birthday card that's both fun and memorable. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
