#161 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.

I’ve been adding more storage to my craft room so there’s boxes of stash all over the place! I also ended up in A&E after cutting my wrist while putting some new metal storage shelves together. My make for this challenge needed to be a quick, simple card and Carnation Crafts came to the rescue!

Items used:

Carnation Crafts: Dainty Daffodil die set and Elongated Frame 2 from the Taking Flight Collection.

DL card blank and gems from my stash. 

The challenge will close on Saturday 5^th July 2025 at 1pm

I really liked how this card turned out so made a second card in different colours.

I used Carnation Crafts Fine Splendour base card die set to cut three sides of a 5 by 7 card blank. You let the die hang over the fold in the base card so that it doesn’t get cut into. I then cut three layers from various coloured card stock and glued them onto the base card. The cream die cut is also from the base card set. The watering can and birds are from the Garden Chatter set and the flowers are a mixture from Vintage Blooms set 1 and 2.

The front of the card was quite heavy so I also decorated the inside to stop the card fallen forward.

#159 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Challenge Blog

I have a friend who lives in an independent living home ask me to make a birthday card for one of the other residents. The lady is classed as blind but is able to see a little. I used bright colours and decoupaged the flowers to help her to see the design.

 I used a 7x7 card blank  and covered it with green card from my stash. The flower wreath is from Carnation Crafts Petals and Threads Collection using the Classic Composure Card Shape. I finished the card with some large cream pearls.

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.

I used a landscape card but turned it so that the fold is at the top. The dies and vignettes are from Carnation Crafts Elegant Alfresco Collection.

50th birthday card

 In my mind I knew roughly how I wanted this card to look. It turned out far better than I'd hoped for.

The card was front heavy with all the layers so I also decourated the inside to help it to stand up.

Items used:

Carnation Crafts - Killer Heels Card Shape from the Oh So Chic Collection and Fine Figures from the Moments In Time Collection.

Presscut - Plain Squares and Notched Squares Nesting Dies.

Craft Artist - gold no shed glitter card.

Limetree Crafts - Ice Gold Shimmer card (in real life it has a gorgeous shimmer),
