#83 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 recently bought some new Tonic die sets and couldn’t wait to make a card with them. There are two sets which have interchangeable dies and they make a dome front to the card. The set I used for this card is Tonic Spring Garden Dome Card Die Set. This is for someone I worked with between 2002 and 2008. We lost touch for a while after both leaving the company but we’re now back in touch and still friends.

  

  

I printed a sheet of card on both sides using a Create and Craft Digital Portfolio Glimmer Shimmer USB. The picture on the USB didn’t show that it printed out as an ombre effect – peach through to light orange, really pretty. I die cut the base layer from this sheet and then cut the other filigree dies from Limetree Craft Ice Gold Shimmer card. Lovely in real life as it shimmers - hence the name! I then finished with Nuvo Dream Drops in ‘Rudolph’s Nose’ (more of an orange red). 

This is the inside of the card before gluing the ‘dome’ front on. 

I used the other set of dies to make this card for my older sister. I didn't take a photo of it but this is one she took once she'd received it.

The challenge will close on Saturday 30^th April 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.

#82 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. 

This card is for someone in a birthday card swap. 

The base card is roughly 8 by 8 but I made it by joining two pieces of card together. The card is from Ross Papercrafts and has embossed lines running across it and is a beautiful shimmering gold but sadly the camera hasn’t picked it up.

The base layer is card by Anna Marie designs, it’s a pale lemon colour but again the camera hasn’t got the colour quite right. 

I then printed a sheet of pink card using a Create and Craft Digital Portfolio USB – Volume 15 Watercolour Paper Effects. The die is also from Anna Marie Design – Dottie Ringlets. Sometimes I cut the small circle off but this time I kept it intact. The ‘Just for You’ die is from Creative Craft Products Ultimate Ribbon Sentiments Everyday Die Set and is also cut from the same printed pink card.

I finished the front off with Nuvo Crystal Drops in Shimmering Rose and tiny flowers that I’ve had for ever in my stash. 

On the inside I used my favourite Happy Birthday die by Tonic Studios also cut from the pink printed card.
