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. My make this time was for a forum swap with the
theme of Spring Flowers. I knew I wanted to make a bunch of flowers and stand
them in something like a vase. I was looking through my USBs that have SVG
files on and found the flowers that I wanted and also a watering can. The
watering can was a flat, one dimensional, die cut but I like a challenge so
decided to have a go at making it 3D to hold the flowers.
After several many attempts I finally
managed it! I attached the heads of the flowers to sticks that florists use and
then I glued strips of card across the neck of the watering can in order to
attach the flower stems.
I wanted the watering can to have a ‘folk art’ look
to it and found the perfect flower wreath in one of my Craft Artist digi kits.
I printed it onto clear adhesive backed film, on the finished item you can’t
see the edges of the film so the wreath looks as if it’s part of the dark green
card.
Items used:
Creative Crafting World: The Paper Pantry Special
Edition Cutting Files Vol VII Spring Concept Cards
Serif Craft Artist: Victoria Nelson Spring Tea
party (wreath).
The
challenge will close on Saturday 25th June 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.
So pretty and very dimensional. I like the way you have decorated the watering can - very effective. x
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, you made me laugh as you say how you used the florists sticks they use, as I used to be a florist many years ago, you found another use for them, I must remember them when I need to use one that it is possible in card making.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful project. I always admire the way you make such different things with such patience.
