#No:97 Anything Goes - CD Sunday Plus Challenge

Thanks to everyone who entered the CD Sunday Plus Challenge over the last two weeks. I was host so I get to pick the Top Three. We had lots of Halloween themed entries and as I love Halloween I’m going to find it difficult to narrow it down to just three! I made several Halloween items but as they’re my design team makes I haven’t been able to blog them. The first one is my card for today and I’ll use the others over the next two challenges.
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’ve recently joined a new card swap on Facebook. It’s called Card Exchange and the admin is Linda Trigg if anyone is interested in joining in. It’s only been running since September so there’s only about seven members at the moment.
The theme for October was to make a multi-tiered pop-up card. I’d never seen one before but there’s plenty of videos on YouTube. The one I followed was to make a card that fits a 6x6 envelope but after making a prototype from white card I decided to make a larger one that fitted an 8x8 envelope.


After cutting out all the pieces it’s easier to cover them with backing papers before joining it all together. It’s not as difficult to make as it looks and it’s great for displaying all the decorations. I don’t think it will be the last one I make.
Lots of photos showing the coffins on the sides and the various layers.






Items used:
Backing papers: All were designed by a friend who used to offer them as downloads for free on his blog, Sadly his blog has been dormant for many years and he now longer designs any crafting things.
Carnation Crafts: Wedding Volume, Pumpkin Corner, Season Décor die sets cut from their 2021 Halloween bundle vignettes. A Little Spooked die set cut from the vignettes of the same name.
Tonic Studios: The RIP is from the Spooky Coffin Treat Box die set.
The challenge will close on Saturday 12th November 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.
