#150 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

As usual the theme is Anything Goes at The CD Sunday Plus Challenge.  Remember you must have used something printed from a CD, a USB or a digital download, you must state where the item used is from and you must make a physical item and not a digital one.

In a recent craft magazine there was instructions on how to make a triangle or teepee card base. I’d made these many years ago and had wanted to make some more but couldn’t remember how to so I was delighted to find these instructions. Following the instructions I made a card base from some white card but the finished item was far too small! So I set about working out dimensions to make a bigger card that would, when folded flat, fit into an envelope 9 by 6.5 inches.
I already knew how I would decorate the three sides. A friend is a very talented artist and since he’s retired he’s spending more time painting.

 


I enjoyed making this card so much that I made a second one for my youngest brother. He likes to play a bass guitar in a band and I try to make him a music related card every year. There’s nothing digital on this one.




Both men contacted me to say they loved their cards. I think I'll be making a few more of this style LOL!

Items used:
Carnation Crafts: Not Messy, Creative, Strike A Pose and Tools of the Trade dies and vignettes.
Backing paper was from a craft magazine.

The challenge will close on Saturday 1st February 2025 at 1pm. 

Don't forget that the CD Sunday Plus Challenge is about making items using something printed from a craft CD Rom, USB or digital download. You can use other craft items on your card/project, such as a stamp or die, but you must include something printed from the new categories. You must also make a physical item and not a digital one. In your blog post you must give the name of the printed item you've used.
