Thanks to Gina K I have found a new You Tube show to watch called Craft Roulette. It’s been on for 3 years and it is awesome. Mary, the host and a guest spin a roulette wheel for 4 parameters to make into a card then they spend the next hour making a card and chit chatting. Everyone watching can submit a card too and the following week all the submitted cards are reviewed. On episode #153 the parameters were, a curved edge, flowers, 2 blues +2 other colors and fussy cut. This is the card I made. Round edge made me think rocker card. The basket is 2 shades of blue, the grass and flower stems are 2 shades of green. Neutral colors like white, tan and grays are always allowed.
I do have a template and a SVG for the basket linked below.
I hope you watch the show this Friday and give it a try. It is the ultimate stash dive.
