Craft Roulette celebrated its 6th birthday, having begun during Covid on 3/13/2020. Host Mary Gunn had Alicia Call Me Crafty Al as her guest. Alicia has appeared many times over the years. I love her Advent Calendar videos and have referenced them on various posts. The wheel wasn't too bad this time:

• Project - Tri-fold Card: I did an A2 card with a gate fold inside. 
• Colors - Vegetable Garden: I used orange/green/brown. 
• Element - Nursery: Flowers are grown in a nursery. 
• Random - Star(s) or Starry: I added star embellishments to the card front.

After deciding on the format and orange cardstock, I took the 8x11.5" cardstock and cut it in half. Used 1/2 to create an A2 top folding card and the second to make a gatefold. I trimmed a bit off the top of the gatefold and adhered it inside the top folding card. I chose a mix of patterned orange papers for layering. I already had a completed flower in the stash, plus several stamped/die cut sentiments. The inside one was stamped during the show. Some star embellishments finished the card. 

Here are a few more views so you can better see the fun fold.

I was honored to be Mary's guest on this week's Craft Roulette Members' Show. We got to celebrate my 100th card from last week and spent an hour showing & commenting on randomly selected member cards from last week's gallery. Very fun! While you can't see that video unless you're a member, check out the Craft Roulette site for loads of inspiration, if desired.

That's it for today, crafty friends! I was behind on blog commenting but think I caught up pretty well. Oh and I participated in part of the March 2026 SBC Fest offered by Scrapbook.com yesterday but will have to watch the rest on replay....

Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful weekend!!
