#185 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

My next door neighbour loves dogs as much as I love cats so I thought it was time I made her a card with a dog on. Carnation Crafts have a collection called Everyone’s Best Friend which has loads of different breeds and with fur in several colours. I picked the one I thought was nearest to ‘Nancy’. My neighbour was delighted with the card and said it was a perfect match to Nancy!

This card is for my youngest sister. I’d bought some new dies and wanted to try them out so made this eclipse card. I’ve only done the eclipse effect in the four corners it was too much to do it to the central figure as well.

Serif Craft Artist: Art Deco Cruise digikits.

Jamie Rodgers Crafts: The Diamond Collection dies JRCD0217

Presscut: Plain Diamond Nesting dies PCD214 (to cut inner diamond shape),

Blue glitter card, silver peel offs and gems from my stash.

#183 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

On the 3^rd May 2010 I entered my first The CD Sunday Plus Challenge. Sixteen years later and I’m writing the post on the challenge blog - I might be retired but there’s no time to get bored LOL!

My make for this challenge is a card for a birthday swap I’m in. Sadly there’s only four of us in the swap now there used to be twelve when it was started many years ago. The person whose birthday it was loves bling – I hope my card fits the bill LOL! 

Items used:

Carnation Crafts: Letter L from The Ultimate Alphabet Die Collection and the flower vignettes from Pretty Pattern die set which is also part of The Ultimate Alphabet Die Collection.

Crafts Too: John Next Door Santa Fe JND588 dies and Craft Artist A5 Silver Glitter card.

Tonic Studios: Nuvo Jewel Drops in Grey Mist.

Gems from my stash.

As usual the theme at The CD Sunday Plus Challenge is Anything Goes.  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.

I like Steampunk designs as does my lovely teamie Carol. As her birthday is in April I decided to make her a Steampunk card instead of the usual pretty floral ones I send her. She will have opened her card by now so this isn’t spoiling the surprise for her.

This second photo is with the stand I made to display the card.

Loads of things used to make this card:

Carnation Crafts – for the base card I used Wedding Volume from Fairy Tale Day Collection.

Serif Craft Artist – for the background paper I used Daisy Trail Steam Punk Inventor.

Debbi Moore Designs – the two characters are from Match It Steam Punk 2 USB and die sets DMMI112 and DMMI114. As well as cogs and keys.

John Next Door – large clock and corner dies from a set free with Box Magazine #11. And Happy Birthday die set JND596 Vertical Birthday – my new favourite sentiment die set!

More cogs, sentiment and card stand from die sets by Couture Creations (Clockwork CO725843) and Card Making Magic by Christina Griffiths (Happy Birthday DIOB0534 and Easel Card Stand DIOB0546).

The challenge will close on Friday 8^th May 2026 at 9pm.
