Blue and White - CD Sunday

The theme at The CD Sunday Challenge this fortnight is ‘Blue and White, chosen by Margaret.

I used a backing paper from Joanna Sheen’s Oriental Dreams CD but I opened it in My Craft Studio and changed the colour and transparency.

 

 The stitch design is one I bought from www.stitchingcards.com. It’s supposed to be worked in several colours but I wanted a sort of Willow Pattern look so did mine in all blue. 

 

I cut away the corners from the white card using corner scissors and backed it with blue card. I copied the leaf designs from the tree and stitched them in each corner. I finished the card by adding glittery peel offs around the edges.  

Don't forget that the CD Sunday Challenge is about making items using something printed from a craft CD Rom. You can use other craft items on your card/project, such as a stamp or die, but you must include something from a craft Cd. So if you like colouring stamped images or digis you can still enter the challenge but you must include something from a CD such as a backing paper, a sentiment or a butterfly for example. In your blog post/Facebook entry you must give the name of the CD you've used. This is important if the items you've used can be bought as a download as well as a CD as the Design team can't tell which has been used unless you tell us. Your entry can't be considered for a prize if you haven't used a CD or if you haven't told us the name of the CD in your post. The Design team still leave comments on your blog but there's no chance of winning if the above hasn't been followed. We now have a Facebook page if you don't have a blog - The CD Sunday Challenge.

Winter Wonderland - CD Sunday

Wynn has chosen 'Winter Wonderland' as the theme at The CD Sunday Challenge.

I decided to use a card blank design from the Joanna Sheen magazine box kit issue 6 and also use an image that was in the paper pack that came in the kit.

 I used some pale blue card from my stash for the base layer and topped that with a really pretty bird design backing paper from a My Craft Studio CD – The Best Of MCS Christmas. The CD was free with Quick Cards magazine back in 2012.

 

The ‘Let It Snow’ was also in the free paper pack.
