#94 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

The UK is currently mourning the loss of our beloved Queen Elizabeth II. It's been such a sad time for us. Tomorrow is the state funeral and many more tears will be shed. She's now reunited with her husband. Rest in Peace your Majesty.

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 11 year old great nephew has, in the last year, taken up learning the electric guitar. There was only one theme that I needed to use for his card!

I made the pop-up box from scratch. I do have a die that was free in a magazine but I wanted a bigger box. The paper is one I designed in Craft Artist. I picked out music notes from various digi kits, recoloured them as they were black, grouped them and then copy and pasted them to fill the page. 

The guitar die cut was glued to the back with the rest glued to acetate strips ad spaced out across the top of the box.The keyboards, which I used three times, were all meticulously paper pieced!  

Items used:

Serif Craft Artist digikits: Name That Tune, Nutcracker Christmas, Sweet Melody (music notes that have been recoloured).

Tonic Studio: several sets of music related dies from a few years ago.

Paper Boutique Sentiments Dies Vol XX

The challenge will close on Saturday 1^st October 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.

 

#93 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 made this card for an ex-colleague/friend of my late husband’s – she loves shoes and handbags! Anyone who knows Carnation Crafts will instantly recognise this as one of their designs.

It’s a fairly basic card just a couple of layers of pink card topped with a die cut lacey frame and then the shoe and handbag vignettes cut out using the matching dies. I didn’t like the colour of the shoe heel so coloured it in using an alcohol marker. I finished off with loads of clear gems and pink flat backed pearls in different shades of pink.

Items used:

Carnation Crafts - Perfect Accessories Rose Shoe and Rose Handbag downloadable vignettes and die sets, Square Frame die set. Summer Daze Perfect Papers (which is actually 300gsm card) for the pink layers and green for the frame.

The challenge will close on Saturday 17^th September 2022 at 1pm.
