#148 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

This is the last Challenge before our Christmas break. It runs until 22nd December and we’ll be back on Sunday 5th January 2025.

I rarely make my Christmas cards early enough to submit them as my design team makes. But this year I had nearly all of them finished by 1st December.

This card is for a very special Aunt and Uncle of my late husband.

I also made a stand so that the 'book' would stand up.

Items used:

Carnation Crafts: Fairy Tale Day and Christmas Awaits Collections.

  

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/Facebook entry you must give the name of the printed item you've used.

The challenge will close on Saturday 22nd December 2024 at 1pm.

#146 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.

My lovely next door neighbours recently celebrated 25 years of married life. They’re such lovely people and brilliant neighbours so I wanted to make a special card for them. There’s only one craft company to turn to in order to make a very special card and that’s Carnation Crafts!

The base card is cut from silver mirror card using Carnation’s Into Spring Card Shape. I then cut the included filigree dies from silver glitter card. The bride and groom are dies and vignettes from the Happy Couple dies. I added a 25 and Happy Anniversary die cut to finish off the card. 

Items used:

Carnation Crafts: Happy Couple die set from the Perfect Day Collection and Into Spring Card Shape die from the Into Spring Collection.

The Paper Boutique: Happy Anniversary die from Sentiments Volume IV.

Claina Palma: 25 dies from the Numbers set.

Crafts Too: Silver Glitter Card – non shed.

Silver mirror card from my stash. 

The challenge will close on Saturday 23^rd November 2024 at 1pm.

#145 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

I’m host for this challenge and my card is a Halloween themed one for a card swap I’m in.

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.

As I said in my previous blog post I love making Halloween themed things. I went all out for this one - it's huge! Imagine one and a half A4 cards laid on their side plus a bit more! It's meant to depict two houses with a graveyard in the middle.

I’ve added lots of photos showing some of the detail in the card. I was very brave and added some spiders! I’m terrified of the real ones but living on my own I have had to learn to cope with them.

Items used:

Carnation Crafts dies and vignettes: Haunted House (from Getting Together Collection), The Creaking House, A Little Spooked, Spooky Friends, Men’s Social and Better Halves (both from Getting Together Collection) and Dreamhouse Card Shape (from Peace and Quiet Collection – used for the graveyard gates).

Paper Boutique die sets: Woven With Love, Wickedly Wonderful Embellishments and Sentiments Volume IX.

Tonic Studios: Scalloped Circle Layering Die Set.

The challenge will close on Saturday 9th November 2024 at 1pm.

I love crafting for Halloween and luckily a card swap I’m in always has the theme of Halloween for our October swap.

I like all the spooky faces behind the windows. 

            

Look at the little black cat looking up adoringly at his mistress!
