#78 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

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 always put a lot of thought into the cards I make for people but for some people I make an extra effort. One of those people is my late husband’s only surviving aunty – sister to his late father. She’s a really lovely person and has always treated me more like her daughter than her nephew’s wife. At the beginning of this year she was 88 years young and has only slowed down because of the Covid restrictions. Normally her and her husband are out at charity events and helping ‘the elderly’ LOL!

For her card this year I’ve turned to Carnation Crafts and their downloadable vignettes. I think it’s impossible to make a ‘bad’ card when using Carnation Crafts items.

The base card was made using In The Courtyard Card Shape dies. The pink background mats were made using Carnations Perfect papers which are actually card stock.

The card folds flat for posting. To display it you slide the ‘pond’ on the right hand side over the left hand side which then makes the two arches stand upright and form a corner.

The colourful vignettes were cut using more dies from the In The Courtyard Card Shape set plus the Grand Grandeur set (the fountain and the plant in the tall stone effect pot).

 

 The challenge will close on Saturday 19th February 2022 at 1pm. 

Don't forget that the CD Sunday Plus Challenge is now 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.

We also have a Facebook page if you don't have a blog - The CD Sunday Plus Challenge.
