Craft Roulette Episode 279 – Kid’s Card for My Granddaughter






This week’s Craft Roulette challenge was a fun one! Episode 279 gave us the following parameters:

  • Project: Kid’s Card – Mine was made especially for my granddaughter.

  • Colors: Theater – I went with rich Theater Curtain Red and deep Black Theater Seats.

  • Element: Picture – My skunk is holding a little hand-drawn picture.

  • Random: 1/2 & 1/2 – Perfect for a skunk, with half black and half white fur!

This card is another example of one that wouldn’t have come to life without the spin of the Craft Roulette wheel. I also gave it a Fun Fold twist—it’s just a little different than a standard A2 card.

Card Details:

  • Base: Crumb Cake – 6 3/8" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"

  • Layer: Basic White – 5 1/4" x 4", cut with the Pattern of Friendship Die to add a striped texture

  • Accent Strip: Red – 5" x 1 3/4"

  • Sentiment: “Hello” cut from the current Paper Pumpkin Add-On Die Set, Circle of Seasons, mounted on Basic Black punched with the Modern Oval Punch

  • Focal Point: A skunk punch art piece from my stash of Card Candy made many years ago, now brought back to life!

To meet the “Picture” parameter, I added a tiny, hand-drawn image for the skunk to hold—it was such a charming little finishing touch.

Craft Roulette always sparks my creativity, and I love seeing where the random parameters take me each week.

📺 Join us live for Craft Roulette on Friday evenings at 6:10 PM Central Time on YouTube—you never know what the wheel will come up with next!
