#109 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.
The theme for a card swap I’m in was Lavender and Lace and this is the card I made:


 I covered an 8 by 8 card blank with backing paper from a Paper Boutique USB – it was originally in paper kit form but they’ve put a lot of their designs on USBs now. The background die is just a 2 inch wide strip Tonic die which I cut three times and glued to green card stock, also from Paper Boutique. The sprigs of lavender are dies and vignette from Carnation Crafts and the sentiment from Tonic.

I finished the card by adding some Nuvo Crystal drops but smudged one and thought I’d ruined the card. I managed to remove the ‘smudged’ drop but it stained the card purple. I thought I had nothing to lose and covered the stain with white ink from a Pen-Touch pen – I think I got away with it as it’s barely noticeable!
I dug out the paper kit and used some toppers to decorate the inside of the card.

 

Items used:
Creative Crafting World: 8by8 card blank, Paper Boutique Lavender Fields both the paper kit and USB - The Paper Pantry Vol VI. Green card is from the matching card collection.
Tonic Studios: Constance Lace Die 1741e, Enjoy Sentiment strip die 2584e and Nuvo Crystal Drops in Violet Galaxy.
Carnation Crafts: Dried Flower die and vignette from the Fond Memories Collection
The challenge will close on Saturday 13th May 2023 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.

  3. How lovely this is, Pamela! I have a die set that is very similar to your background, and have not used it for years. You have inspired me to dig it back out and play with it in a new way Your lavender flower creation is WONDERFUL! It would be a perfect addition to our challenge at Beautiful Blossoms Challenge. Loving the interior of your pretty creation, too!
